Re: [St] 98,398
Steven,
I didn't realized it was miles until Greg pointed it out.
So you made it from far as you reached 158396km which is far above 100000km.
One question though: what you call "extra slop in them rotationally": is it
the fact that the symmetry axis of the piston is not perpendicular to the
engine symmetry axis? if so according to you and your mechanic, is it due
to piston rod being twisted?

OK first off I'm unreasonably upset I can't say it honestly made it to
100,000 miles. BUT, it didn't fail catastrophically and we have the
technology to rebuild it. So here's the story.
.....The pistons had just a
little extra slop in them rotationally so they tore it completely down.
This is actually pretty impressive.
