Hi Laurenne,

I recently posted pics of my ModelTech P-47 with a 91-CD and oil collection installed. Up to today I have been very happy with the engine. It started easily and I was just getting it broke in and had just accomplished a good low idle however, today it died on a 1/4 to 1/2 throttle flyby. The plane didn't crash (whew!) but when I walked out and picked up the plane the prop just freewheeled (the nut is not loose). After removing the engine from the plane the crank turns perhaps a 1/4 in either direction. I fear the connecting rod is broken or come off.
Please advise

Thanks
Bob
