Well man, its not his fault that the radios happened to be in the same frequency!

But its really amazing that it ran out of gas just in time! Thank your stars! lol

By the way.. You did break in the engine right? From the way you put it it sounds like you put that thing in and started driving it straight up and all this happened in one day!

If you didn't break it in you can pretty much go get a new piston and sleeve right now, if you did, sorry I'm glad your cars ok

do you have 27mhz am in your car? if you do I would suggest changing to fm. There arent very many channels in 27mhz am so interference is more common then fm.
