Not a bad guess. Either there was a failure in the connecting part of that rod (cracks, casting problem, etc) or something obviously caused the failure. Crank issue, lack of oil, bad rod bearing, etc. You did have oil in it... right? Wink Still, just such a sad sight to see. Like seeing your favorite dog hit by a car. Tongue

I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Thanks Dan!

I'm assuming it didn't throw me because my rpms were high. Didn't engage the clutch. To be honest, I don't even remember if I tried downshifting as I was pulling over.
