    do you have a picture of the "tuner"? this might be the reason that it has new motor. someone screwed it up and caused it to run too lean.

    I will get a picture of it. The guy who owned it before me used it after the motor was replaced, if I understood him right. What happened was something to do with piston seals going bad (I think.) Then the oil gauge kept showing low oil, but not on dipstick (if that makes any sense.) The dealer told the guy that the oil gauge was wrong. Turned out it wasn't, & the car ran out of oil & threw a piston"something or other" through the motor. The dealership replaced the motor under warranty for him. This guy talked really fast & in language that was pretty much Greek to me, and I only talked to him a little. I didn't want to bug him too much. Now I'm wishing I asked more questions and understood more at the time I talked to him.
