I did a few years back had to eat 2500.00 in labor...But I guess you can't expect them to pay for taking them out and putting them back in...

when i had my auto repair shop they paid me to R&R a hurt engine once hell they even had the replacement engine sitting at my shop before i had the hurt one out and a buddy that has a shop they have paid him to replace an engine in the same car about 3 or 4 times now i bet if you called them up and started raising a little hell they would help you out unless the shop has been getting paid from them and you ?? he could be double dipping on the labor ( i am not saying he is by any means just asking more or less ) Ed

i think i would call jasper before you say anything and ask them what their policy is on labor for a hurt engine and specify that it is on a boat

Well that was at least 5 years ago so it's a done deal.

Sure they will replace their faulty motor(so will a junkyard) .They might pay some r&r .I think jaspers are over-rated and over priced.I like to use motors that we are pretty certain are only going in Once.I probably would use one only if it was the only motor available.

I have used them many times and they pay parts and labor, never any issues.

Usually they will agree to replace the engine and then when they get the bad motor back and determine its defective then they will pay for labor ....m
