    Exclamation H motors online

    THEY FUCKED ME OVER!! i bought a motor from them about 2 weeks ago.. well the shop that is doing my motor swap call me and said that they sent me a motor with a bad head gasket... so i e-mail them and they sent me this..."Hi,

    It is highly unlikely that you will receive a motor with a blown

    headgasket. We do compression and leakage tests on every engine
    before shipping them. If you did happen to get one, besides being the

    first, we would supply you with the parts to fix the problem. We do
    not however cover labor costs."

    well this is what the motor looks like now.. tell me that that is a bad head gasket there is no way in hell that that motor passed the compression or leak test!

    so if you are i need of a motor dont get it from h motors they fucked me!

    damn i bought a b20 and type-r front from them and every thing was good!

    actually come to think of it, the b20 was missing a tps sensor. and it didnt have a complete engine harness, and the alternator whined quite loud!

    also the HID's in the JDM type-r front, the driver side seemed to point way to the left.

    I bought my motor from jdmcustoms.com. It was shipped by R&L Trucking and ended up having a substatial dent in the oil pan, so i ripped it off and come to find out that those rope smokers bent my oil fray all up too.

    I've never had any problems with HMO. I had a slight issue with one of the ZCs I bought, the dizzy was broken, emailed them, they sent me another OBD1 distributor no questions asked.

    if you feel you can win...sue them. Since the motor is out, labor isnt that big of a deal. try to get money for a full head gasket set and use that money to buy a nicer head gasket set.

    Hmotorsonline has shipped me over 30 motors with no problems.

    I find it extremely hard to believe they would send a motor that was bad.

    I do not find it hard to believe at all. But the BOTTOM line is this - you are buying a USED motor --> unless it's a reman from Everdrive or something like that, then the head gasket is something that you'd replace (as well as other auxillary components) before you install. Why trust the gasket on a junk-yard motor??? You'd be asking for it anytime you trust the gaskets on a junk-yard motor. They did the right thing by sending you another 1 though. But JUST KNOW THAT YOU ARE BUYING A JY USED MOTOR... so any way you slice it, you win w/ the pricepoint game. Ever went to a JY and pulled a motor out of a car YOURSELF? On dirt? And tranny? And compression tested, and then shipped to some1 across the country who thinks it's your fault that they need a motor? LOL. It's a business... just like McDonald's sometimes you get cold fries. They made it right. I personally know some of the guys there and for the most part are good people. Just like any business sometimes things slip through the cracks.

    Did you do a leak-down and compression test? What were your findings?
