How does an engine throw a rod? Just curious is it just a random thing
RE: another xud let's a rod go - Spoonaltap - 16-03-2015

It just happens, varying different reasons people will say have caused it, manufacturing imperfections etc..
Some chuck rods even though they're completely stock.

Nearly as bad as the 2.0 pinto in the mk2.. Rod let go at 6k and went through the fibreglass bonnet lol

Well think about the extreme forces the rods are put under in just about every direction. They have to be bloody strong and all it takes is an imperfection in them or a bit of extreme force and it will weaken them and then its just downhill from there lol

Yeah makes sense, just wasn't sure if it was something else. Shitting myself about putting the tuned bosch pump on now
RE: another xud let's a rod go --- engine now out ----- - Toms306 - 21-03-2015
Wouldn't worry about adding the Bosch...if it's gonna fail it'll fail regardless of pump or mileage or engine speed... Main reason I'd never own an XUD lol, it'd always be in my mind.
That is a hell of a mess though lol, never seen one so bad!

Guess the beauty is an XUD is supposedly easier to engine swap
RE: another xud let's a rod go --- engine now out ----- - pioneer DJ paddy - 21-03-2015
Ye really easy to swap hopefully get this car all most running to marra lol

RE: another xud let's a rod go --- engine now out ----- - Toms306 - 21-03-2015
