so I pulled into the landing of one on our marine customers and the port engineer walks over to my truck and says.....Just pull down there where the Lillian G is tied up and get that port engine ready to pull.....
I sez, wait a minute. How do you know it's bad?
Well, he sez.....when the smoke cleared outta the engine room, we found the piston and part of the rod in the upstairs wash tub!!!!!
So, sometimes it ain't necessary to question another man's diagnosis!!!!!
