all I heard was a loud pop and she moved 6 inches..

so i got her home and running good for one day and on the way home she popped a bit and shut down.
she lost two studs of the 1 cyl
turns out the head cracked there because the new press in studs went in very easily, cracked all the way down to the water jacket... dangint..
