What happened to Pistol Pete?

[creynolds]

Pete turned off of the infield in front of our pit and parked it for the day. Sounded like the truck was only hitting on 4 cylinders. What happened?

motor probs.

I think they said it was only hitting 7 cylinders in qualifying, he came by us at RM 67.5 and it didn't sound to good and that was the only time I saw him.

I probably should have been more specific. Anyone have any details as to what let go in the engine?

[EdgeHost]

the motor problem in qualifying was different.That probablem was fixed prior to the race.I don't believe the exact probablem is known yet as the motor is still in the truck.
The other motor is currently being rebuilt for S.F. with will be Petes next race.

Somthing to do with parts that go up and down to make other parts go around and around.

But that's just what I heard.

[JGunn]

I think it was either internal or external, I can't remember?

[pdailey]

I heard it was either the muffler bearings or the flux capacitor. Not exactly sure though

Piston return springs? Next...

you need the special metric cressent wrench from snap-on to fix it too.
