    Son of a...

    Bitch!

    I broke me a rocker arm.

    Damn it.

    Time for all new rocker arms and a cam I guess?!

    I'm guessing this is a somewhat common M20 break down?

    What are the symptoms?

            Only common for those guys riding the limiter

                  No, it's not common at all.

                  The M20 is fairly bulletproof, seriously.

                            people can't drive. i think it's usually manual overrev or not r3v-matching right on downshift more than bouncing a revlimiter.
