    Blown Motors

    Just got back from my Nissan mechanic where i listened to a motor on its last breath.
    2002 ST 2001.000 ks, when i said that sounds bad they informed me that it was number 5 in the last week, from 170.000 ks up.
    Holes in the tops of pistons the size of a 10 cent piece.
    I feel for the owners and family big time.
    And here i was thinking i was having a bad run.

    now i wonder if you could find out if any of these
    motors had had the n.a.d.s done to them would be
    interesting to know
    and where they are from
