It turns out that the insurance only paid out about a grand and a half and they are now saying that Nissan replaced the engine under warranty.(and they only told me this because i wanted a list of parts that were charged to the insurance)..if this isn't warranty item..oh well its done and over now...i only had to pay 600bux out of pocket to get the car back.

The dealerships story sounded way fishy...first i had new fuel lines and a fuel tank...then the story changed to we cleaned the fuel tank, and blew out the fuel lines. (only after asking for that list!)

To address the other issue of how the motor might be trashed id say its possible....after the car died..i triend to get to turn over till the battery died...because it sounded like it wanted to run. The dealer no doubt did the same.

The dealership checked the compression...and had 0 on 4/6 cylinders (supposely).

The car runs like a champ now...but i still don't think they replaced the engine...and i just want to verify it....
The invoice just listed N/C for items related to the engine replacement...oh and a burned up starter motor..lol.
