    Not 100% sure. The journal looks OK, I have attached a photo of the mess it made. It looks like the rod just exploded, I have no idea what could have caused it. The piston is not scored like it would be if there was a lack of oil, and it turns great. The other cylinder has about 95 lbs of compression.
