Well, it took me a little over a week to post this. Needed some time to cool off. My Mav is dead. Have (had) about 5000 miles on the rebuilt engine. Drove her to work a week ago this past Thursday. On the way home that night, about 3 miles from home, the no. 2 connecting rod either broke to the cap somehow came off. Do not know which one because I towed it to my garage where it has set un-touched until last night. I do know that the no. 2 piston does not move and when I shut the engine off it was making one hell of a racket. Last night, my nephew came home from working on his T-bird and told me there in a huge puddle of tranny fluid on the garage floor under the Mav. Have no idea where it leaked from (obviously the transmission). So, again, it is parked for the rest of the year. At least I got 5 months of enjoyment out of my car and rebuilt engine...
