88' Metal in Cases?????
Customer brought in a 1988 Club Car Gas and he changed the oil and found a chunk of metal in so I opened up side cover and there was alot more in there. Big pieces too! Almost looks like a bearing cage ? I cannot figure out where it came from though. Banged rod a little and was still running. Also piston skirt is broke and cylinder is wore and needs boring. I will post pics soon, but thought someone out there may have had this happen in the past?
thanks Rose88 |

I've heard that the KF82 engines always seem to throw the Oil Slinger,
Yet, I've never seen any actual damaged pics of it. Could it be the oil slinger? |

Oil slinger is still attached and this is alot of thick metal that I cannot figure out where it came from. Its almost like somebody overlooked it on a past build? (Hope thats not right)?? It has tabs almost like a bearing cage? Customer wants to bore and rebuild so fingers are crossed
