Is the tuner really paying for all of this?

Isn't that a hole in one of your cylinders? I'm guessing that's how you got fuel inside the engine.

Man Dex, that sucks. Did the tuner say was was going to pay for it? If so, make sure you are involed with getting replacement parts. He may just get beat up old partss and slap em in. Good luck bro.
