INSTALLING OUR PRODUCT WITH A HIGH DEGREE OF PROFESSIONALISM AND QUALITY OF WORKMANSHIP. IF DEEMED, ANY DAMAGE OR FAILURE OF OUR PRODUCT RESULTING FROM AN IMPROPER OR POOR QUALITY INSTALLATION, THE INSTALLER WILL ASSUME ALL CLAIMS TO LABOR AND DAMAGES OF OUR PRODUCT TO THE END CONSUMER. MANY EXTERNAL PARTS AND CONDITIONS CAN AND WILL CAUSE POOR PERFORMANCE OR COMPLETE FAILURE OF OUR PRODUCT. IE… OVER HEATING DUE TO POOR EXHAUST FLOW FROM ITEMS SUCH AS PLUGGED CATALYTIC CONVERTER, MUFFLER, CRUSHED EXHAUST TUBING, STUCK BUTTERFLY VALVE, OR ANY OTHER CONDITION THAT COULD RESTRICT EXHAUST FLOW. THIS IS WHY IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO CHECK OR HAVE AN EXHAUST PROFESSIONAL CHECK FLOW IMMEDIATELY UPON INSTALLATION. AS THIS COULD BE THE REASON FOR FAILURE OF THE PREVIOUS ENGINE. IF THE CONDITION IS NOT CORRECTED THE NEW ENGINE WILL ALSO FAIL. ANOTHER MAJOR CONTRIBUTOR OF EARLY ENGINE FAILURE COULD BE FROM A COMPROMISED COOLING SYSTEM.

YOU MUST EITHER ROD AND FLOW TEST THE CURRENT RADIATOR OR BUY A NEW RADIATOR WHICH WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND BECAUSE IF IT’S TIME TO REPLACE YOUR ENGINE IT IS MORE THAN LIKELY TIME TO REPLACE YOUR RADIATOR. OTHER COOLING SYSTEM PROBLEMS COULD RESULT FROM NOT PROPERLY FILLING AND BLEEDING THE AIR FROM YOUR COOLING SYSTEM, INCORRECT WATER TO ANTIFREEZE RATIO, OLD INEFFICIENT WATER PUMP, COLLAPSED LEAKING OR PLUGGED HOSES, IMPROPER ROUTING OF COOLING HOSES. BAD RADIATOR CAP NOT HOLDING PRESSURE OR OTHER TYPE OF LEEKS IN THE COOLING SYSTEM, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS CHECK PERIODICALLY AFTER INITIAL START UP THAT THE COOLING SYSTEM IS MAINTAINING A FULL LEVEL. ANOTHER IMPORTANT AREA IS THE LUBRICATION SYSTEM. ENGINE FAILURE CAN OCCUR DUE TO LACK OF OIL FLOW AND PRESSURE FROM A USED OR IMPROPERLY INSTALLED OIL PUMP OR BY NOT CLEANING OR NOT USING A NEW OIL SCREEN, NOT COMPLETING SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES TO INCLUDE NEW OIL FILTER, ENGINE OIL COOLERS MUST BE CHANGED AND REPLACED WITH A NEW OIL COOLER TO INCLUDE REPLACEMENT OF A RADIATOR WITH AN INTERNAL OIL COOLER AND ANY EXTERNAL OIL LINES. IE… TO FILTERS AND TURBOS AND RADIATORS THIS IS MANDATORY AS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN ALL THE CONTAMINANTS FROM AN OIL COOLER AND OIL LINES IF NOT REPLACED THIS WILL COMPLETELY VOID THE WARRANTY. THE INSTALLER MUST FOLLOW THE INSTALLERS CHECK OFF SHEET* SUPPLIED WITH THE ENGINE. THERE ALSO WILL BE OTHER WARNING CARDS SUPPLIED IN YOU INFORMATION PACKET THAT ARE ENGINE SPECIFIC. MAKE SURE TO FOLLOW ALL RECOMMENDATIONS GIVEN. THE INSTALLER MUST FULLY EXPLAIN THIS WARRANTY TO HIS CUSTOMER. THE INSTALLER AND THE CUSTOMER MUST INITIAL ALL PAGES AND SIGN THE BACK PAGE.
