I spent the afternoon helping change a SB GM engine in a suburban. For
the last month, when the owner tried to start it, sometimes it was very
hard starting. Finally it would not turn over. So he installed a new
starter and battery. It started, but ran rough and developed a knock.
It had a bent rod. One of the injectors was letting all the fuel under
pressure, into a cylinder after shut down. This finally got so bad, it
hydraulicked the cylinder and bent the rod. The piston in that cylinder
is down @ 0.250". I guess a Q-Jet is not such a bad idea after all.
