He meant did it throw a rod.

From my unfortunate experience, if a motor does just does, they dont idle well at all and you can sure as hell hear it!

Here's a bent rod from a bus. Just wanted to post it up, look at the size of it! Nearly as big as ray.ray's old fella lol. Must've took some bendin'. Punched a hole in the block big enough to fit someone's head in. Bye bye $40,000 engine

Dude, the big hole in the side of your block would be a pretty easy way to tell if you have done a rod...
