J/k, it didn't blow up, although I thought it did at first. It really felt like a blow-up but it was actually the flywheel coming loose, causing a horrible knocking sound in the engine.  You can hear the knocking at around 1:20, just before I stop the engine. |

I bet that was a heart-stopping moment! Well done on winning the Eurovision song contest, by the way.

I bet you were like SHIT i blew the bugger up then FEW its the f**king fly wheel./ Yeah that's pretty much what went through my mind.  First I was like "wtf am I hearing? Oh damn it something's wrong!", then I drove it home and I was like "Oooooooooooh shit it's gonna pop for real now" and then it died on me. Then me and my brother rolled it the last way home (uphill in blazing sun, very hot!). Some hour later when my heart rate had dropped to a more normal level and the sweat on my body had calmed down, I thought I'd just check the flywheel, and it was loose! I could remove it by hand. Hey scruff, thank's I guess, I didn't know we won the Eurovision song contest lol. I've managed to stay away from any Eurovision related stuff. ;D |
