well, the thing had piston slap goin on since i bought it....thats how i got it for so cheap....drove it for almost a year and it was progressivly getting louder, until 1 day it sounded like you were hitting the valve cover with a large hammer, i managed to get her home, and quit driving it....then i got the urge to do some exploring in the fields.....this lead to the motor completly locking up....the pics below are actually the rod....with a inspection light i can see down into the crankcase and there is a piece of the piston wadded into a ball lodged inbetween the crankshaft and the block, there is ceramic in all of the cylinders from the spark plug getting smacked, and chunks of piston all the way up to the throttle body...almost like a grenade went off in cyl. no. 3...
