Toasted engine!
For anyone who was on the Mach 7th ride & was wondering what happened to my engine?
I took the engine out & found this... (a broken ring wedged between the piston & port) 
It really bummed me out because it was running soooo good before it died!
BTW this was a 2.5 year old engine from my old engine supplier, (not a Raw engine.)

A match made in heaven, till she threw her ring at you. Then she up and dies. That's rough. ***plays taps***
