Well, we got the engine pulled out of the truck yesterday. Took about 7 hours for dad and I to completely remove it.
It never ceases to amaze me what a guy will find! Check out the pictures, someone Marine Tex'ed the entire front of the oil pan together. The engine has at some point launched a rod out the bottom and done some major damage. Their "fix" was starting to leak again, and we are VERY happy we decided to pull the engine, rather than just the head.
I do not have any broken rods, that we can see (back 4) but it is one of those that was the hole in question. That tells us there is SOMETHING in the cylinder, which is a chunk of the glow plug we think?
The injector from that cylinder is trashed, the tip of it looks like I hit it with a sledge hammer.
I am working with the injector people to get something going against the glow plug people at this point. He believes that they will at least cover the cost of parts, which I think is fair at this point!
I will do another update when we get the cylinder head off, and see what is going on in there... Thanks! Bryce
