Don’t unless they are paying for it. The motor is seized, there will be contaminates.Thanks. I’ll have them do the oil analysis to start.
Below is how bad the crank movement is on the motors with the shim bearings omitted. This should barely move to the eye. Once the motor is seized, this will likely not move at all. The cases would have to be split in order to see if the shim bearings are in place. Based on the VIN# and related, my bet is that they are not.
