That piston took a pretty good hit, will be interesting to hear how that rod checks out.
I not sure how or why it happened, I have only seen this happen once before on a kubota diesel that the operator decided to add gasoline into the diesel tank. I have no theories on this car. Amazingly the connecting rod checks out as far as length, these rods are pretty tough!
