Default Thinking of purchase almost junk 2008

Hi

I have been watching this Hummer sense the engine failed.

I have very little information except it is Yellow and looks good on the outside.

This unit is 4 heel drive and has the 3 cylinder engine that is toast. The transmission was driving the vehicle when the engine failed.

My question is what would be the best engine to replace this one with preferably not the 3 cylinder engine.

Thanks in advance for any opinions or information offered.

Why are you posting in the H3T section about an H3?

Hi

Because I am new to this forum and still having trouble even getting to my post.

I don’t know the difference between the H3T and the H3.

At this point I am still trying to get the bank involved to communicate with me.

I see a question about how do I know the engine is bad. I can’t turn the engine using a 2 ft pry bar so I am sure it is unraveled inside.

If you are an administrator please move this to the correct forum.

Thanks for the note I need all the help I can get most of my experience is on equipment you can park one of these under.

Is this what you meant to type?
