IBL.
No, you shouldn't have reset it to 50k with the new engine. Why? The odometer does NOT measure the engine milage, it measures the CHASSIS (body) milage. The odo is there to give the exact milage of that chassis to prevent people like you from ripping them off. Just because you replace the engine doesn't mean the car is magically new again, as everything else in the car is still 128k miles old.
If I bought your car then discovered it was rolled back, you better believe I'd report you for fraud. Carfax makes it easier then ever to tell.:slap:
Some lock or delete this thread. This is just about as stupid as the "I'm locked out, how do I break into a (car name)?" threads.
