Re: Blown Engine?

well it sounds like either headgasket went, or you had multiple problems. a rod could have blown through the side of the cylinder if oil was low. your just going to have to look around. does it look like oil came out of the intake, and coolant overflowed out of the bottle?

its hard to say what happened, but with a bang, id almost say the rod blew through the cylinder because piston seized in cylinder due to low oil pressure or low oil.
