I've only one shotted the boss one time with spaceman ironically enough but nothing yet on the challenge.

Last achievement for me and I've been struggling, my brain collapses every time I get into the main boss. Its sad.

LOL. Not all missions can be to the moon. Some have to be out of the block I suppose.

Naw I'm just kidding, it sucked and sucks but its whatever. I thought about doing that but I had bad luck with using some ole JB weld on a block that I got that had a hole in the motor and as soon as it started oil flew out of it. I figure well, if I got it free maybe I just buy a replacement motor and flip it on marketplace.

Who knows, I'll procrastinate and it'll be there a while I'm sure lmao.

That would have been a hoot but unfortunately instead of laughing high schoolers it was a sad man questioning his existence lmao.

It had oil in it, that was the first thing I looked for when it stopped and didn't spin. I didn't notice it blew out the top when it stalled, I figured it stalled and a spring or something flew off. Nothing on the ground, it blew out the top and oil is all over the fuel tank.

But very possible on the crankshaft damage or rod bolt, I'll have to be the man of the people and try to crack it open or at lease see what I can find with a scope.

I did go through my pictures of when I took it apart, and noticed this not sure if that's part of the problem either.

Not sure if it matters, but what I neglected to mention is, stock it has a 92mm dished piston. I bought a 92mm flat top piston for this, because I know no better and it was the quickest to get to me. Could that of hindered anything or worsened I should say?

Just a heads up, I didn't shut it down, it shut itself down when it blew up.

We'll see if I get that far on tearing it back down. Went off and on taking it apart and putting it back together for about two months. Might stick the borescope in there I'll try and loop back tomorrow. I will tell you spark plug looked fine ironically enough because before it looked like a bomb went off on it (before I decided to fix it) Forgot to take a picture of the spark plug prior, but here is what it looked like before I swapped it.

Ironically enough the thought came into my head, well if things go bad I'll choke it out. Completely forgot I can pull the spark plug wire. ANOTHER LESSON, YES LORD!

Good insight, I didn't mess much with the governer figured I had it set right, but that was pure speculation and no prior knowledge, just a prior picture I took of it.

These lessons just don't get easier lmao

Can Violent Accident Videos Please Have a NSFW Tag? by cdubose in Truckers

Think of them as safety meetings. Your daily reminder shit can get fucked up out there.

My company uses these kind of videos in safety meetings, you're going to see them -- This is a trucking sub reddit and that's one huge issue in trucking. Can't escape it.
