I have not seen a case in which the crankpin failure destroyed anything else in the engine (bearings, liner, piston, etc.). I would recommend running the engine as normal and only check into it if you notice any irregularities.

Thanks Jimmy , you do realize Im from Australia ? I dont know how that affects horizons support in that is it world wide or just a USA thing ? I did get the engine when they 1st became available ( and I mean the very day ) . I guess I do need to start running it . Its been sitting in an ugly stik as I didnt want to press another plane into action until I retire another . Is there a time frame that the problem will show itself if its going to ? cheers the pope
