Reminds me of the time I picked up a very old 18RG. It ran, but badly... so in the process of changing all the fluids and plugs etc, I managed to break off a spark plug electrode down into number 2 cylinder.

I fired it up anyway... It made a godawful noise for about 20 seconds while I held the revs up until the errant electrode made its way out out the cylinder, into the exhaust, and blew primary muffler apart.

 

Good times, good times.

and blew primary muffler apart.

Well I think it happened when i was having fueling issues had the manifold throttle off so it was just a big hole to spray ez start down. Bolts and nuts where every where.

 

Amazingly there are no detonation points. Next task is to take the valves out for a better inspection of the seats and go from there.

 

I might not have any ceramic coating left on the piston but at least it has been work hardened now LOL :P
