Bummer,man. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)
'Engine seems a quarter down on power'
This is my piston.There are many pistons like it,but this one is mine.
(IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)
What was the fuel being used at the time of failure?<-
Has the head been inspected for cracking due to the temp spike?
Have the exhaust valve seats become loose?
Have the exhaust valves been cracked from the high egt?
Have any of the other cylinders been damaged by the shrapnel?
Half the time the rod gets loose from the piston and flails around in the crankcase .
