I am glad you got it squared away and that it did not do what that other one did, that would suck to have a perfectly good engine go bad becasue of a defective part. I wonder who is going to pay for that?
I dont think any shop would internationally use crappy parts as it can be bad for their reputation as well but that said sometimes trying to save the shop and or the customer money comes at a price.
