For you...... Rain cap fell corroded until it fell off. We had a record rainfall. Cylinder filled with water. They cranked it and it ran 17 minutes until the block was cut in half. It was still running when they shut it off because of the ensuing fire. The rod lodge when it spun down, and stopped the engine so violently that it sheered the PTO's and split the case of the Hydraulic clutch that drove the machine (petersen 4700b)
Im assuming with a high degree of confidence that the rod bent before it helicoptered.
