    New Member - and threw a rod

    Thank you for the comments. I’m glad to know I was probably the cause, and not necessarily a total lemon. I should have paid attention to the normal oil pressure. My exuberance at finally getting one overcame my common sense on checking things out more thoroughly. Probably a mistake I will...

    New Member - and threw a rod

    I was doing somewhere between 60 and 70 on the highway. Tach doesn’t work. The oil pressure was about 20. No ticking that I heard. The coolant took off about 3 seconds before the bang. I don’t mind the acceleration. Are there any other parts I should be worried about in addition to the...
