I am looking at the report. It says at the bottom. "Lack of oil damaged engine-preliminary diagnosis shoed the engine to be locked up due to poor maintance. Ford motor approved a teardown at their expencen as a goodwill gesture. inspection showed #3 and 4 rod bearings welded to crankshaft. Reinstall all parts."
I have a couple of questions:
1. Is a teardown considered to be dropping the pan and looking at the crankshaft?
2. Now #3 and#4 bearings? They told me and the BBB that is was #2 and#7. the day I went to get the oil sample they confirmed it was 2 and 7.
3. Now lack of oil...what happened to dirty oil? Lack of oil has never been mentioned. Also on the day I went for the sample I was told that it was full of oil and the oil that was drained out looked "pretty clean"
Now what?
