Jim Clark Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 When Jack drove my Range Rover part way back fron Ciney I gave him strict instructions NOT to touch the turbo boost control, the rev limiter and the traction control. Did he listen did he hell and this is what happens. Crankshaft fractured on number 6 bigend journal. Actually It wasnt Jacks fault, it was caused by me trying to squeeze more BHP/ torque out of the engine. Mind you it went like a scolded cat when it was running well, as Jack will confirm. Oh well better build it stronger next time. Jim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Degsy Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 In my experience Jack wouldn't need to have touched ANY of the controls to break something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R Cubed Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 In my experience Jack wouldn't need to have touched ANY of the controls to break something. Shame this probably happened just before it was going to run out of fuel, trust Jack to get it the wrong way round :nut: If it run out of fuel first you would not be rebuilding the engine.......
