Got one heck of a deal here!!

Hey Doc why do you suppose the rod bearing locked up to begin with? Brock I would imagine the only way to get to that wrist pin is to open the block.

Until he opens it... who knows. BUT... I've seen this one a bunch of times. The ski get's swamped, and wont' restart. Then... it gets parked. What that happens, the rods, and crank rust solid.

I am in madison heights and have a good crank out of a 95xp Let me know if you are interested. I can send you pictures.

WELL.......... i tore the engine down only to find that the crank is not rusted nor is anything else....... i also noticed that on the side that the rod locked up on there is a bunch of scratches on the piston and a little scoring on the cylinder..... BUT the rings are just fine so im kinda confused here and to why the bearing locked up only on one side......... good news is everything else work=s great...........kinda funny but the girlfriend was wanting to learn so she was watching and when the cylinders were off the pistons were just sitting there and i accidently hit the start button and she about shat herself........ AT LEAST I KNOW THE STARTER WORKS AND THE CRANK AINT BROKE LOL HAHAHAHA
