This is why you don’t crack common rail injector lines to bleed them. Truck is brand new 300km on the clock had some aftermarket items fitted blew the ecm main fuse and owners thought it was a fuel bleed issue tried to bleed it did nothing found the fuse was blown drove 5km and went into full lock up at 70km/h with so much force it twisted the flex plate and grenaded completely had to cut the bottom of the bell housing out to split the torque converter in half to split the trans from the engine

Holy shit! That has to be a new winner! :D

How does bleeding the line cause that to happen?

Close but the injectors are internal under the rocker cover and those injector lines are one time use due to being soft metal so they cut a seat into the line. When they cracked it it reseated as you can see from the gray line on the pipe end and it also tore the o ring on the end of the injector then it filled the sump so quick it sucked up into the intake through the Pcv and hydro locked. it did it that quick it didn’t even get a chance to run away

$58,000 for engine alone that’s not including labour at all or testing of the transmission after being shocked that hard otherwise Allison won’t warrant it. That piston is number 5 there is no skirt or gudgeon piston on it it’s just the crown. It won’t come out

That damage is just crazy, was it (the truck) fully loaded when it let go?

This one was making a bit more power,

I can't find it at all now, but there was a dash cam of a truck in front and all the sudden the truck locks and slides sideways and throws out the crank from underneath lol
