I've never seen that happen on f4r. And I reused the crank bolts couple of times. Must have been faulty bolt or improperly tightened

How did the auxiliary pulley detaching cause the engine to lose compression
@TrackAndBeyond4 ай бұрын
So these engines have floating sprockets so when the bottom pulley is undone the crank sprocket can spin on the crankshaft freely. Because the crank sprocket doesn’t have a key way, when you do up the bottom pulley on to the crank sprocket it keeps it in place. You can buy aftermarket crankshaft sprocket that has a key way which would have dropped the engine smashing itself to bits. Hope that makes sense

@jamesbryan88 could have obviously if the crank cog managed to stay in situe. If the bolt came out and cog came off aswell then still would have had the same result yea
