Motorhead Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Had the pto crank bearing let go. Did not strip down entirety to see all the carnage. Bits of bearing visable thru intake . Piston not coming up to TDC. Time was the factor so had a used motor thrown in . Met Marc at plazez auto wreckers and was a great experience. Knows his stuff and had me running in 4 days from the incident. Just was cold calling people on my ride back from Quebec. Have over 3000km on this replacement engine now. If the hours were accurate on the used one I should be good for a couple more seasons. Gas and brp oil were not the factor in the failure.

Motorhead Posted April 7, 2020 Share Posted April 7, 2020 Then there is the rabbit factor. Hit this rabbit seconds before the engine coughed up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have liked to see the crankcase split in half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
