The problem was a failed big-end Babbitt on number 3 rod.

Are Fords more reliable than Chevs????????? There was a lot of joking about that before the problem, but all that changed quickly when things got serious. We all know that things can go wrong with any car and the same can easily happen to any one of us, so until I make it home I'm keeping very quite. Mind you a have been keeping a few notes in my little black book and I may use them as ammunition after we get home.
