OK, why would you want to replace a decently running engine regardless of its flaws?? For all you know, it might run another 5 years or 100,000 miles. Also might not. BUT, there are no guarantees on ANY mechanical device. That is why there are warranties. More to the point, though, why do you want to replace the engine? Is it giving problems? Is it "broken" somehow? Also note that there can be some electronic issues. Different model year engines may have different levels of emission control devices. Not all are "plug compatible" so to speak. It simply is not like the old days where you could put anything into a truck that would fit and mount. I once put a different year engine in a Dodge truck. Replacement engine was 1 year different than the engine it replaced. Thanks to the electronics, it would not even start. Plugs were not compatible. Sensors had been relocated. I ended up transplanting the entire wiring harness and the processors from the donor vehicle to even make it run. Then there were issues with satisfying the computers in an effort to get the "check engine" light to go out. It even tied into the ABS system. All in all, it was a nightmare that I would not care to repeat.

As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
