NTC Big Cam "Locked Up""

so what's the story?

 

No News on his motor yet. They are dragging their butts, said they'd have more info on Monday.

 

I think I'd be paying a wrecker to tow it to another shop. something sounds fishy over there anyways

 

I felt the same about the shop. When 89 told me about what they said I raised the BS flag. He isn't mechanically savy so I offered to get involved. Their tune changed real quick when I let them know they were not speaking to someone that knew nothing about vehicles. It was actually quite funny because when I called he gave me the same "uh, it's locked up". When I rattled off several reasons why the motor wouldn't turn over you could hear his jaw hit the floor over the phone. LOL

 

bearings... crank may be gone too if it's been run long like that

 

You could have a cracked or loose injector cup that would cause that.

But, check the easy stuff first.

 

This makes more sense than spinning a bearing while its sitting in the parking lot. Takes heat to seize a bearing to the crank and lock the motor.
