Guest Guests Posted 25/10/08 06:54 AM Share Posted 25/10/08 06:54 AM Pump gears fail when you hit the limiter too often as they cop a sudden shunt.When the limiter is hit, the throttle closes & revs drop dramatically. Going from 6000rpm to 4000rpm in a split second means that all the force that was on the gears is lost in an instant & they rattle round in the pump then all that force is smashed back through them if your foot's still planted...

Guest Guests Posted 25/10/08 07:26 AM Share Posted 25/10/08 07:26 AM Pump gears aren't made to be abused in any car unless they're billet so you may of just been lucky if they were standard!Not sure on a blown XR6T engine but I know of a high km long motor in good nick for cheap if you're keen? Comes with invoice & warranty as well Stef, you gotta sign an entry form & pay $10 to go. It's for charity so well worth it ya tightarse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 25/10/08 07:35 AM Share Posted 25/10/08 07:35 AM A block that's spat a rod will be no good to you anyway, the only reuasable part for your purpose will be the crank.Buy the long motor for $2500, sell manifolds, turbo & head for nearly that & you've got a block/crank for virtually nothing It's at Walliston Wreckers in Kalamunda for anyone that's keen.Stef, I downloaded the form to the work computer but I'm not at work Think I got it off Ford Forums but not 100%.
