Matty might be onto something. Only the second rod is damaged but I can only see 1,2 and 3.
Crank also looks fine but I need to confirm this. Sump is a mess and will be fun getting out.

Certainly makes sense though that this may be left over from the trip up to licola.
Shitty day.
The tune was fine. Sure the numbers were up there but crank snapping doesnt normally happen that quick. It generally takes a bit for it to rear its head.

Bad news about the failure, Andy. I wonder if the company that supplied the faulty turbo should pay the cost of your replacement engine?
Especially since there was no coolant, only oil present to cause hydraulic lock.

Sump is off and can confirm the crank is 100% fine.
It looks like hydro lock rod in number 2. Everything else perfect.
This is so shit words can express how guttered I am.
No coolant, just oil, the previous turbo has ruined my engine!!!!
This new turbo is fine not leaking.
One very unhappy sad panda!!!

Ok, presumed, your old turbo leaked somewhere and pumped oil (too much oil) into the cylinder , thus hydro-locking it ?

I am he, fear me
AB... did you disconnect the Battery for 30 minutes when you fitted the new Turbo?
(Well, someone had to ask...)
I can't offer any technical support 'cause TD42 Turbos don't have wires but sounds like its time for the 'Bionic Q' eh, ... newer stronger better,
Can we please have the Party in the warmer months this time.
Roofys Party I near died of double newmon... phewmon... ammoni... bugger it, shit it was cold

Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
