Default Re: Head Gasket

Exactly. Lower rod bearing rusted to h*ll but thankfully the crank journal is OK. Should be Ok replacing the bearing. On the piston end of the rod it was so rusted that you could barely move it. That end will need to be changed too. I'm lucky that it didn't throw the rod or bend the crankshaft. I'll be buying the parts this week and starting to put it back together. Maybe I'll get it in the water just in time to pull it back out but I will have a least gotten it in the water!
