MC-2 lets loose

[JShadzi at aol.com]

 You joke, but I have seen that really happen...at ND, a customer who I had sold a 2.0 bottom end came in complaining of idle trouble and that the motor was burning lots of oil after he installed it...a quick look under the car revealed a lot of oil on the underside of the car.

I put the car on the lift to determine the source, and there I see a golf ball sized hole in the back of the block!  We drop the oil pan, and sure enough, a 13mm deep socket is sitting in the bottom of the pan.  Looks like one of the connecting rods picked it up and wedged it between the crank and the block...unbelievable!
