so every thing was going good friday when we went out on our first boat ride, the oil pressure gauge was like hit and miss with presssure, (i thought the gauge wasnt working right...i guess it was lol) went from twin palms to up passed the sand bar and floated, then went down and had some drinks at the sand bar. then right when we left i noticed the valve cover breathers were smoking when i give it fulll throttle so i let off and was cruzzing at like 3 grand, looked down and had zero oil pressure, then a very loud clacking started and the motor shut off. motor was smoking for a good 10 min while we got towed back to the resort. then some guy set a flare gun off and burned down like 10 miles of brush on the az side hah anyways i took the valve cover off and noticed that one rocker on the right side was completely free moving, so i think that valve froze. think my oil pump went bad and caused all this???? pullin the motor this week. also hers some pics

We must have just missed you guys.  We met up with Daniel, Nick and Dave on Sunday and hung out for the day.  The drive home was a little rough with multiple overturned trucks along the I10 just west of Blythe.

Good luck with the tear down.

The problem with America is stupidity. I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?
