What is  it with these Canadian re-manufactured engines anyway? I have
encountered a  number of tales of engines that have failed all of which
had the yellow  Canadian stickers.

They  were pretty crappy rebuilds done by Cummins in Toronto.  They had so
many  returns for warranty they finally closed up shop and ran like bunch of
chickens  about two years ago now.  There are no more rebuilt waterboxers engines
 available from VW.
