- A. GENERAL ENGINE INFORMATION
-
JDM King Motors Corp. provides its customers with used imported Japanese engines with low mileage. External parts of the engines such as belts, hoses, seals, gaskets, and plastic covers are sometimes damaged during shipping and can be replaced by the customer’s mechanic using parts from the designated vehicle. Cosmetic damages such as scratches on valve cover are normal on used engines and do not reflect upon performance of said engine. In addition, replaceable parts such as sensors, exhaust pipes, and air intake boxes may be missing if they are broken or damaged. JDM King Motors Corp. is not responsible for these parts as the warranty only covers internal parts, which would prevent the engine/transmission from operating correctly.

Any performance engines (i.e. turbocharged, supercharged, KL31, VTEC VVTI VVL MIVEC, etc.) include a 30-day start-up warranty also starting on the date shown on invoice. ALL ROTARY ENGINES ARE NOT UNDER WARRANTY. Engines and transmissions must be installed between the warranty periods. Performance transmissions are covered by a 30-day start up warranty against defective internals only. Non-performance transmissions are covered by a 30-day unlimited mileage warranty against defective internals only. The warranty covers only internal parts of the engine block and head(s) as well as transmission, and does not include exterior engine/transmission and related parts such as clutches, flywheels, flex plates, distributors, coil packs, igniters, alternators, a/c pumps, power steering pumps oil/water pumps, solenoids, sensors, valve covers, oil pans, manifolds, fuel system, turbo/superchargers, and torque converters.
