New Engine is in

Well, 2 1/2 weeks ago my car died due to a major lack of oil. Infiniti put a new engine in and it feels good, but appears to be running a little rich.

Now, I heard through anonymous sources, Infiniti is making a new engine to replace all of the bad engines out there.
So, everyone with a Revvup engine will be looking at getting a new engine according to this.

Do you have any idea how many vehicles use a version of that engine?

Well, they're going to have to do something, because they can't keep replacing engines can they?
My car, for example, has a new engine at 8300 miles.
I have a 100,000 mile warranty..
so, if you do the math......
my car will have about 13 Engines before the warranty expires. That's provided I actually take it in at the first sign of trouble. If I just waited until my car's required oil change the engine would have been done after the first 3000 miles, which means about 30 engines for my car.
It doesn't really matter much to me. One more problem and I'm filing under the lemon law. I paid too much money for a car to have problems like this.
I've been left stranded 1 time too many and look like fool when driving my car that has more valve, lifter tick than a 40 year old car. My brother just bought a dodge truck for $312.00 and drove it from NJ to TN and back .. while towing a motorcycle and trailer the whole way. He didn't have any problems. .. I can buy about 130 of those before I spend the money I did on my car and have 130 more reliable cars...
