[QUOTE="pdee4t, post: 155282, member: 1594"] Yeah after I checked and ruled out the gasket, I thought it could be from a little overheating. As for the crank locking bolt, if you do miss the detent or the groove on the crank, wouldn't the engine still turn over when pressurising the cylinder because the bolt isn't in the groove??(mine didn't turn over at all). The picture in my previous 2 posts is what the crank and detent/groove looks like. Also, even if im just a wee bit off TDC, would it still be just enough for that bolt to slightly fit into the groove at all or just fit into the groove enough to hold it? I did also do an oil change afterwards and drained the oil, there were no metal filings at all anywhere on the magnetic drain bolt which im happy about [/QUOTE]
