Rods out the side come to mind along with Crankshaft, cam, rocker gear.I think quick reflexes and good decision making is the key to problems and in this case probably saved the engine. Usually it’s driven to destruction and then when the rod pops out the side blame the Tuner.

Ford_Power Member 798 Member For: 22y 1m 24d Posted 05/07/06 08:45 AM Share Posted 05/07/06 08:45 AM Sorry to hear Ben. Nevermind though.. you don't seem too cut up about it and you did shut the engine off as soon as you saw the low oil pressure so that is good.Look forward to seeing it back on the road soon Cheers.Ross Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/26592-f6-ute-broken/page/4/#findComment-402591 Share on other sites More sharing options...
