If you have the warranty in writing and can show that you tried to have them look at it. Let them know you are not giving up until they honor their warranty or you will seek an attorney.

Sounds like someone screwed up during the install and in order to fix it they will have to pay for it out of pocket so they dont want to mess with it. Dont let up, it is their responsibility to correct the problem or preform warranty work which they would get reimbursed for through the engine manufacture. I know where I work they like to perform warranty work because it is guaranteed money as they get paid by the manufacture of the engine or other product.
