Just picked up a rebuilt engine, trying to find out the history on it. Anyone seen this plaque before?

"guarantee void if removed"

I think that tells if the engine has been overheated.

Any idea what rebuilder uses them? In the conecticut area possibly?

Mitch//pa · 09-16-2015, 01:12 PM

Most rebuilders use them for my modern car business, but from what I see most model A rebuilders don't

I have no idea who's that is

What ever the reason, I would not remove it. You would not want to void your warranty.

Since anyone can buy them if you do "Melt one" you could remove it and replace it!!!
