Ya I made sure to leave just enough slack for the wires.
Question, I've been searching the internet everywhere but cant find a solid answer.. Could a hardened alloy steel washer crumble into piece and I mean really small pieces if it was dropped through the intake and made it's way down the cylinder? Engine ran for a total of 4 seconds if that
Only the top of the piston had damage. And the damage it had wasn't all that bad.. You could mill if you wanted too. (I wish I had pic, forgot to take one). The only other damage was a small chip in the cylinder head which will get milled. The walls were perfectly fine and same thing with valves and stems.
It's just bizarre to me. I'm not convinced a washer fell down the intake and did this. and of course if a washer fell down the intake, the responsibility falls on me. I picked up the engine from the his shop and did the install.
Washer or no washer, That would have nothing to do with the lifters being stuck and one rod was bent?? The rod bearings needed to be replaced too.
