I have a 69 Coronet that we bought in 1997. On Sept 18, coming back from the mechanics I had a "major" engine failure. The temp
gauge pegged the dial twice, I pulled over to the side of the road. At that point steam was coming from under the hood. Thought I
had blown a rad hose. On lifting the hood, the rad hoses were still in one piece. The engine bay and under the hood were covered with antifreeze. Looked around to see what had happened and found the lower crank pulley resting on the passenger side to the K member. Fan blade was damaged. Any way has any one had the pulley explode. See attached picture.
