Good engine builders get it right the first time. Trust me on this one!
Hah! I'm learning that same thing right now. I've been pretty lucky with parts, and expenses but between having to figure out what was wrong on my own, and also breaking things, it has cost me a lot of time. I have never had an engine that ran without issue since I've owned my car. What is the point of paying a good amount of money for something that ultimately keeps you from enjoying your car, versus paying a little bit more. At what point do we have to step back and think about how much our time is worth?
