fatboyneil Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 A number of reasons from running too high a % fuel to running too lean or even known a stone jam in the flywheel to cause conrods to snap they normally need replacing every 1-2 gallon of fuel used. The only way you will know is strip the whole engine down and look for damage on other parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
