Have you ever Pulled the crank out of an engine that was stuck and freed by
your above method?And measured it to see if it was bent?
Andre

The explosion is similar to that of detonation the only reason I got "BOOM"
was because I was lighting the cyls with the spark plug out and using an
extended electronic lighter.... with the spark plug screwed back in (not too
tight).... it should fairly simulate a detonation.. I havn't wrecked
anything... and it has saved me lots of man hours... I wouldn't have posted
the message if I have had even an ounce of concern or trouble with my
method.... If he backs the engine up with a detonation... it should free
easier.
