    Every wrench I know loves looking at carnage from failures. Share some of your photos of failures here for all to see.

    That is a MX13 EPA13- 520K miles

    Anyone want to comment on the root cause of this failure?

    I am guessing RPM was north of 3,000 RPM.

    Circumstances off the failure?
    (truck parked? driving? going downhill? )

    #### I put a million miles on my Paccar without a hiccup. Over revved or overhead was just done and done improperly

    I wish I knew. I would say your closest guess is "downhill". I will tell you that all injector tips are in-tact and there is no evidence of oil in the CAC/plumbing.

    My write up stated- Engine cranks but will not start and the unit was towed in of course.

    I find when these things happen more often than not people tend to play dumb.

    Lost a gas BB motor in my buddies 40 foot Siverton cruiser last week.

    Only way in or out is ripping the motor down to a short block and somehow squeezing it through a 24 inch window opening .

    Same way In.

    I am thinking of building a gantry crane I can bolt up inside of the boat that will go out the window.
