I rarely venture out to the main forum.

Someone linked this thread on another forum

50k miles at 7,500 RPM

... that is really funny that he was driving that way but I don't think that should have been the root cause of his rod/tunacan failure.

 

Yeah, that shouldn't be the root cause, unless he drove all 50k miles like that.

 

high RPM, low load, is not a big deal

 

7500 RPM is below the red line. No big deal.

Total waste of gas to cruise the freeway in third gear, but it shouldn't be a problem for the engine.

The rod going out really does sound like an oil problem of some sort.

 

The level of sound must have been unbearable (for a normal person). I guess if the top is down it wouldn't be as bad.

 

It's Like Wipin Your A$$ Before You Take A $hit.....Just Doesn't Seem Right. Well At Least To Most People

 

what the **** where have you been

 

He also said he's been driving it like that for 4 years. In one of his response.

 

Gotta be a fake...
