Last Sunday I had my hearse towed to a shop because for 3 months it has been sitting. I have had a bad misfire that I couldn't find. Once the shop had it, they found 6 cylinders with low compress. Pulled off the heads and found on piston with a chunk missing, took the motor out and took it to the engine shop that built it on Thursday. They found 3 more that were cracked.
On the way home from the engine shop, my truck had a catostrophic failure of the AC compressor under the hood in traffic. Engine stalled out and truck billowed smoke & freon for a moment. Pulled off the road ASAP and drove up onto the curb. The curb being taller than normal blew the right front tire upon impact. My truck was out of traffic but the trailer I was towing was not.
Here are the pictures. Luckily, the truck is fixed, new AC compressor & 4 new tires.
