New engines
Where is a good place to buy a rebuilt 12a or rebuilding kit for a 12a?
I have a feeling my engine will go soon (My mom drove my car w/ low Oil)
I needed to buy some Oil (thought I had some b4 i changed) so i drove my mom's car to get some (i drained my oil already)... My mom is addicted to Diet Dr Pepper (anyone else?) and thought a "short drive to 7-11 would be harmless" (in my car)
Well, this could be an excuse to but an FD

Well depending on how far of a drive , it may have overheated. pull your plugs and look at them to see if they are wet or coated with oil, if not you should be ok.
On the other hand, mazdatrix is the most complete rebuild kit you can find (approx 91 dollars plus shipping).
the only other thing you SHOULD need is a front and rear main seal. around 115 totaly plus shipping. Ill be ordering mine next month. They also carry rebuilt engines starting at around 1200 plus shipping.

Thanks
I checked the plugs, they were fine..
it's only about a 1 mile drive round trip to the 7-11, it's just down the street...
I may be wanting to rebuild the engine anyway, rebuild it and get a mild port, something along those lines..
Thanks for the help!

Just to be sure, I took it to my mechanic..
There was minor (MINOR) metal shavings in the oil filter, nothing to be worried about.
Just to make sure, i had him check the whole engine out
