Well yesterday was not a good day at the Pickering stable , we got nailed with snow squals all day trying to keep up with our salt accounts and lack of equipment from last springs sale of two trucks that had spreaders . I get a call about 9 from my brother who is informing me of black salt i said HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUh he went on to tell me he heard knocking then contam salt the honda on the airflow Vbox threw a rod threw the side of the block , borrowed a dump truck from my buddy and finished out the day was really just dealing with it like Henry did with his Blizzard i had picked up a replacement engine with a longer crankshaft for mulitple apps went back to the shop last night and the guys looked at me like they had seen a ghost i said whats wrong ---------yup they cut the crank to short Huh image that soooooooooooooo today i have to pickup a crank and or another engine which ever is quicker has snow is back in the forcast. The guys felt bad me too i told them to gather has many windshield washer jugs has poss they said why ------------------- cause you have become my new spreaders!!!!!!

That's the first I've heard of that in a Honda. I did it with a Tecumseh on a log splitter, it bogged for a few seconds and Bang! Sorry to hear of your troubles though, I'm sure you'll get things back under control!!

"longer crankshaft for mulitple apps "

Sounded like a good idea..

Thats what keeps it exciting Fred...

You'll be laughing about it harder every year.
