Tough one to read and understand there mate. Take off the caps lock and put in a little punctuation, then it'll make more sense, I think.

Many people on here will tell you that I spend plenty of time talking people out of things they want to do, because it is a waste of money, or not necessary. So I would never sell anything to anyone they do not need.

So, what is the problem here?

Have I sold a faulty part?

Where is the 'faulty ' engine with melted piston?

Have you bought the remains of the engine with a 'melted ' piston and want to know if it can be repaired?

Tell us what you want / mean and I and others can help
