The FCP “free” option is almost always the best way to go unless you’re in a
hurry. They use WorldPac for some of their stuff so it can often end up coming
from a warehouse nearby, as it often does for me. There’s a WorldPac in Miami
so if it comes out of there I‘ll often have it the next day.
My last order I chose the cheapest option. Shipping updates were from FedEx but
label and postage on the box was USPS, so I guess it's the arrangement where
FedEx does the long-haul and USPS does the final leg.
Ordered Friday, had it Wednesday, with long Labor Day weekend so I thought that

I just bought some radiator hoses yesterday from fcp and there were 3-4 options

I didn't see any reasonalbe way to read the codes on the '01 ML, so I

EGR flow. The car runs just fine either way, so I am clearing the code for

There is no magic repair for a worn out cylinder -- if a ring is broken
(or badly stuck, etc), the liner will by now be worn to the point the
rings cannot reliably seal, resulting in no compression cold. No
amount of jacking around on it will do anything but increase the wear,

Steve,
You can pull the head, pull the lower pan, ream #1 cyl ridge ring, pop
out #1 and repair the ring/replace the piston/whatever, and put it back
in w/o taking the engine out of the car.
More than likely the sleeve is within spec, and you can fix the car for
very few bux. Rings are cheap.
Good advice, but in my experience over the years the problems is, that once
you get the head off things start to multiply like wabbits. The car has 300k
miles, so there's really no point in not having the head re-conditioned once
it's out... then while we're at it, what about the leaking seals...
Why not simply replace the engine with a good used one? Wouldn't that be
the cheaper option?
