Block!!!!
« on: May 21, 2011, 09:32:55 pm »
Broke down on my birthday of all days and the no 3 (from left to right) spark plug was contaminated with oil. Running really ruff and was towed home. Head will be off tomorrow but im expecting the worst of a melted piston, or the rings have fried.

Does anyone have a block for sale as i may need it but it will be confirmed tomorrow.

Or does anyone have a piston ring kit?
