Yeah, the pieces were ground up pretty good, and of course no spares.

Hmmmm... that's really odd. There should be exactly three pieces (two short
and one long), and in perfect shape (except that there's three instead of
one).

Always kept spares in my tackle box, but used them ALL up in one afternoon
coming back from Lake Woodruff after a bad thundstorm filled Spring Garden
Run with lumber.

Who knows what the PO used as a shear pin, evidently they went through
a bunch of 'em...

My friend is quite good at damaging things in new and interesting
ways. I suspect he tried to run the engine for awhile with it broken,
jamming it R-F-R-F at speed.
