Re: Broken rod?
On my cart the rod did chunk out a decent size portion of the cylinder, but when I rebuilt it, I lucked out and the broken part of the cylinder didn't reach high enough to affect compression. The rebuild attempt failed because I used a replacement crankshaft from another used motor that was apparently egged-out. It would knock at higher rpms and when I pulled the side cover, the rod had already loosened up after just a few hours of driving. Live and learn...
