that will certainly do it. just do it with the motor running, the starter won't be able to crank it when it is hydro locked. or just max out your shift points and rev limiter with your HPP3 and have at it.

couldnt you erase whet the compurer saved when the ses light came on by using atap and clearing the code?? or does that just cleas the code?
i like the nitrous idea but you would need to change the oil to make sure they do not test the oil.

what would happen if you ran like jet fuel or methanol or something?

hmm. what about taking the motor apart and sabatoging the piston rings? that way the oil gradually "dissapears"

yeah its just too risky to kill your motor in order to get a new one for free..........or is it

i wonder, can you set the rev limiter too high with a hypertech, kill the motor, then uninstall the hypertech as if it was never there? then it would look like the rev limiter failed in theory.........

there are SEVERAL ways you could do it, but unless you have a hook up at a dealership it just seems to me that it isn't worth trying. down here i know a couple guys that work at dealerships and could probably pull it off. red2k might be able to help ya out too, but he lives in ark.

I worked at a K-MART in Arizona, the service rep wanted to help a friend with his lemon, so he drained all the oil , added gas to the crank case drove it for 25 - 30 minutes, brought it back and drained the fuel from the crankcase and put the old oil back in,, It did the job
