Ha ha. That's what I told my dad.

Well I'm not sure what happened. I won't be able to work on it until Monday. I assume I melted a piston. It blew oil on the frame. I assume it pressurized the crank case, and blew out the valve cover gasket. It was clanging pretty good. When I pulled over I expected to see rods through the pan, but it looks good. I imagine a piece of the piston is floating around.
