Default Re: 1998 Mustang Cobra Engine Work Question?

How do you know it cracked a rod? Has an internal inspection been done? Compression/lleakdown test? Running with a cracked rod is not a good idea. If the rod breaks, the damage could be extensive, including breaking the block, damaging valvetrain/heads, etc. If its cracked, get it to a mechanic ASAP before the damage becomes even worse.
