Interesting, that is exactly what my 1.5L did in my 79 Rabbit. When I got it
apart it showed that the connecting rod nuts backed off and the cap came
off.

Folks,

Thanks for all your suggestions, once home, and upon further inspection...It
appears I tossed a connecting rod through the block. (which took off the
water pump...)

Anybody know of a source for a 1.6NA engine in the midwest? (I'm in central
Iowa) I've already checked local sources...my one possiblilty went to the
crusher last month.  It'd be a shame to junk this car...its in reasonable
shape otherwise.
