My buddy had this same problem with his recently. He got some bad fuel and ended blowing out some piston rings. I would definetly limit your driving as much as possible until you figure it out. I'm sure you don't want to end up rebuilding the top end.

With the aluminum shavings I found in the oil it's the timing...engine is half way broke down just need to take a few more things off to get her done...

Wow, looking at those seals on the computer, they are messed up!! I still dont get why the the chain was rubbing on the tone wheel, must have been really slacking as it was running due to that blown seal. Im still not even convinced about my theroy. I started thinking trust washers, but that didnt make sense either when I thought about the way its built.

Your going to need like 3 oil changes in the first day with this one. Stock up on some cheap stuff
