Yes sir, which is why we do NOT allow vendors here to fill your PM boxes full of it

No sir he was sending them via our private message system. He called me stating that he only sent a couple and never intended to Spam anyone. After getting so many complaints I looked into his PM's and there had to be OVER 100 spams in there that he sent.

On top of that I was debating on letting him back as he sounded so sincere about not meaning to spam anyone, he registered again under a different name and sent several more before I could do that

I have NO desire to do business with anyone as dishonest as that and I apologize to you guys for ever letting him on this site in the first place.

Thanks Top!

Glad to see you are watching out for all of us.

Now at how many miles on average does the block fail? Mine has 110,000 on it after this month. Or is that random as well?

I wouldn't buy the boat anchor if I were you. Cummins know they have a problem with these so why buy one of their problems and make it yours.

For one I didn't know about this problem and for two I wasn't a member of this forum to find out this information.
