Lol...the motor in question was in my truck, the "Old Girl" gave up the ghost in the mountains of WV with trailer in tow. Hes been at me to buy a new one for 2 years and Ive resisted...she was over 189k when she well......decided to start a knocking and banging. 5 trips back and forth to GA since Feb and no signs of anything at all, even this morning monster oil pressure, sounded like a wrist pin dinging 20 miles back, big mountain hill, rattle and pop.....

Funny thing is its still running great with a rod loose, and oil pressure is at over 40lbs....musta broke with the big end still on the journal....oil looks like glitter, but I actually drove about 5 miles off the expressway, then 5 miles through town. Still running. Im gonna fix her when I have time. But I have to take his advice and go buy myself a new truck (I just hate to Im a cheap SOB) and as much as we joke about him spending all his money and this and that, I cover many of the costs.....its a "inside" joke between us about him spending my inheritance.
