Last Saturday; I pulled the oil pan off that 4600 I bought last spring - I found a mess in there!
The nuts came off #1 connecting rod, busted the camshaft, and drove the rod out through the side of the block. I am thinking the crankshaft is not repairable. (A lot of metal missing everywhere on that throw)
I am not sure about other damage to the block; and I still need to pull the cylinder head.
I will finish pulling it apart when I get home from moose hunting.
I'll post pictures then.
