[QUOTE="RBEmerson, post: 1412155, member: 91458"] My point isn't that this engine is the victim of C10 Syndrome. Of course it's not. It's that, however the gas got into the cylinder (something that should be sorted out), I'm puzzled as to how this engine didn't bend a rod or whatever. Particularly because #2 had the least leak-down / best sealing. Further, given a cylinder had a significant amount of gas in it, what's to keep it from happening again. And doing more than just locking up the starter. IMHO, someone got very lucky. ADDED: Mentioning C10 Syndrome is to show what can happen when a cylinder is filled with gas and the starter tries to turn the motor. That applies for any 4-stroke motor, not just the C10's motor. Or FJR motor. [/QUOTE]
