so you must not have seen the GIANT PLUME OF STEAM that usualy comes when you pop a radiator hose? even if you were going fast it would have looked like your car was blowing assloads of smoke from the tail pipe. Also there is also the strong smell of coolant that would have been pouring into the car. This can all be summed up as a very stupid mistake.

There is usually no reason to not buy a used motor, most are undamaged in a rear collision.

Don't be a dick you bitchass punk. I hate shitheads like you. One I know the guy and two very dark window tint so no he couldnt see the smoke three the smell didn't hit until he found out something was wrong. Buy the time he pulled over it was to late. ASSHAT!
And for everyone ells, carparts.com is pricing all of their motors at a 1000, by the time you ship it and have it installed you would be looking at well over 2500 plus no warranty. So how is it dumb to buy a new motor with a 30k/5yr on it?
Now if some one really wants to help a guy out we could use a good head for a few 100 bucks. He could put that on and only be spending 300 for labor. If after the head is on and they find out the rings are bad then he'll have to rebuild the bottom end. While doing that he could go forged at that time.
See thats the kind of help people look for on a forum, not some sarcastic shithead remarks.
BITCHES! (alright)

Just alittle rant.
Some of these people come on this and other forums for help and some don't have a lot of cash to blow. That and you have others that every chance they get like to cut people down. That pisses me off, I like how the net makes them feel big. But in person you know they wouldn't say that s***.
You know you could get a 170hp FSZE jdm motor for less then 1k.

"Derrick from Corksport tells us that the best way to achieve flight is through a FSZE high-compression, non-turbo engine swap. This is the engine found in the Japan-only Sport 20, the factory hot rod version of the Proteg (called Familia in Japan). The turbo engine would certainly be intense but requires a transmission swap and numerous other changes. However, the FSZE engine will slip nicely into the Mazda engine bay with minimal technical difficulties and still achieve 170hp. The addition of headers, exhaust, intake, and computer mapping would raise the bar even more. From here, just look on the Corksport site for a detailed list of offerings to help complete the transformation of your 01 Proteg into something remarkably similar to the Sport 20 sedan or Familia S wagon."

the FSZE will not make 170hp out of the box in a US protege. Is it so bad that I dont feel bad for someone that didnt do a job correctly on their car? Didnt check their gauges while driving? All in all this could have been avoided had he checked the hose to make sure is was on correctly.

two engines less than $400
buy an engine for $400, buy a hoist for $140, spend a week with your car and use quality radiator hoses.

Assuming hes a mechanic with time to waist, well we all know what ASSuming get you.
Your also assuming that these engines dont need rebuilt. How long did they sit, were they stored properly (it doesn't look like it)?
Not all people are willing to put there faith in a used engine. To be people that buy a used engine and do not rebuild it befor they install it are asking for trouble.

It doesn't take a mechanic to replace a motor. The new motor will go in the exact same as the old. Hell, the second motor I've replaced was a swap in a civic. Just use a digital camera to know where everything went and label stuff. I think a P5 motor could be replaced and be done with under $800 including fluids....Hughes412 said:

I just replaced my tranny from a junkyard for $500 shipped with 90 day warranty.
Pretty sure their motors come with 90 day warranty also for around $800.
