oh no!!!

well i finally got the 3.0 out of my 90 4runner. Things were going real good unitl i pulled the oil pan. I found the #6 conecting rod broken. The end cap had torn off and wedged its self between the block and crank. that would explain why the engine was siezed. i'm hoping the block isn't cracked so i can rebuild it.
