Sniper needed some tweaking and then the timing marks had to be verified. So, used my TDC tool, crank by hand, get TDC, mark damper, double check with tool (hand rotation again) and I pull the tool out and "WHAM", the tip came off in the cylinder. OMG! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" />  Everything immediately to a halt. Got my camera out and sure enough, it's in there. So, today I'm going to try a little trick, which may not work, but if not, the heads coming off. Just what this guy needed because it's getting loaded into a container headed for his new home in England next week. I should have it fired up by noon, even if I pull the head. btw: in over 40yrs in this industry, this has never happened to me, but there's always a first time for everything.  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite11" alt=":rolleyes:" title="Roll Eyes    :rolleyes:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":rolleyes:" /></p></blockquote><p></p>
