LOL, Dave !!  Did give me a thought tho.  Considering how 'nuts'
this is and agreeing about container being dropped, would it be
possible that the rear end of the crank 'bounced' up & down
damaging what little 'seal' they have anyway ??  I'm thinking
that the car BOUNCED !!  Well, it doesn't end there<G> !!
It would 'bounce' UP [1st re-bound] then RE_BOUNCED and
then 'bounce up' [2nd re-bound], etc., etc. !?!?!?

I guess it really would be a severe 'shock', re-shock', etc.??
And if the motor was not 'fresh' and the crank was in "just"
the right position.............................?!?!!?

Can I now say "just another WAG from _ _ _ _" ????<VBG> !!!
