new opti problems

I ordered a new opti from Dal back in DEC. Mine was starting to miss. Dal sent it and I installed it. This was my second opti install(150,000mi) It never ran correctly after the install. very hard to start. so I decided to go back and install my old opti to see if it would start easily. bingo started right up. My question is has anyone had a defective opti that was new? I've contacted Dal about replacing it only a month old.

The opti's are somewhat notorious for being bad out of the box. It should be covered under warranty.
