the wrist pin was the root cause of failure... started puking oil into the intake and the engine ran away before it f'ed up the piston enough to lose compression.


The thing sounded horrible so close to throwing the rod the bearing cap bolts stretched and the bearing came loose and was hammered flat. and was just spinning in the journal causing even more problems. starving the rod of oil just compounding the issues. A while back we had a Cat engine that drove in with a broken crank.
