Think this will stop you dry in your tracks!!!

i dont see whats wrong with it?

ddm sorry for your current loss.. prayers sent

so what now??

From the looks of it Terry, you dropped a valve!!!!

Are those oem pistons?

After some failure analysis Hoyt and I think we know what did the damage. Whos wants to guess?

It was not a drop valve.

More like a donut top.

wrist pin failure??

Cam broke.

Well if it wasn't a dropped valve it was that broken a$$ cam BJ

From the pics, looks like your block made it. Did it?

Looks like the engine was running lean on that cylinder if you ask me. A lean running cylinder will cause early detonation which in turn will cause that cylinder to overheat which will then go kaboom.

Don't ask me how I know this.

Nope the block has a crack in it!!!!

Seein a new MM engine in pieces on a floor jack will make you sick to your stomache.

The rod broke the cam. Cam was broke in two spots not one.

Looks like it was the hole in the carb boot sucking in un metered air. Both the cylinders had hot spots and both spark plugs were white. The number two cylinder always runs leaner that the other "which is the on that failed". It looks like the number two side got way to hot, siezed the piston, pulled the wrist pin out the piston and went to work. Thats why it locked up as fast as it did. As Hoyt stated " A 20lb flrwheel has alot of force when its turning 4 grand".

Oh and Terry Correction I'm a DIESEL MECHANIC Not a LAWNMOWER Specialiest!!!!!

wrist pins in one piece as well as the top pin hole on the connecting rod

looking at whats left of the piston and seeing that the connecting rod pushed though it. looks like piston failure?

ive seen rods bend and cause it to lock up but never jus turn to ground meat like dat....

number 2 coolest thing ive seen today

I sure is glad we got da South Louisiana Mud Motor CSI team on it.

Oh ok BRO.......Wit smart ass comments llike this on every thread like you do I'm surprised someone towed your fukin ass in!!!!

Dude that sucks. Hard to believe something that small could cause something that major. If the leak in the carb boot caused it.

can't we all get along

all kiddin aside im sorry to hear about your motor. hope ya gets everythin back together before duck killin time.
