colly Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 take the engine apart, my gasser ddii this, and it was the woodruf key in the flywheel, whcih affects all the timing, but i didnt loose all my compression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philswiv Posted January 24, 2005 Report Share Posted January 24, 2005 I would certainly whip the head off first and have a look at whats happening down there. If you can twirl a spanner it wont take you long. Piston ring gone..not too bad...pistion holed/broke..a bit more expensive...complete crank failure...utter nightmare! Let us know how the story unfolds wont you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
