Bent valves, no problem.

Crank bolt was loose, the sprocket key is damaged, crank sprocket beat on the crank snout. The crank sensor also got wiped out, trigger ring is toast. The threads seem OK.

I have a spare 3.5 sprocket but the trigger ring is different. The good sprocket is a bit loose w/o the key in place. Lock-Tite may save the day. Not in the mood to do a crank replacement. At least crank shafts for the 3.0 are cheap and plentiful compared to the 3.5.

Thinking the Bunny Ranch might be more fun right about now. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/evil.gif" alt="" />
