I'm sure most have read my thread about my klze dieing on the highwayand not even cranking again. well today I took it apart to see what went wrong. After pulling the oil pan it was all in the bottom of the pan. I just pushed the piston out from the top. I have absolutly no clue what happened here. I also tried piecing the piston together and figured out there must be another piston thats screwed since I have part of it that says "kl31" yet the piswton I have has "kl31 on it. Its just beside the piston pin. Going to look tommoow and see if theres any other damaged pistons. And holy crap that rod is bent
Now I know why you were pulling the pulley off. Sorry for your luck.
