This thread seemed like a fitting home for the link, but maybe the mods know a better place.

it’s a later motor, a 2.4 LEA from a 2012 Equinox or something, but it will look very familiar, as it’s basically a direct-injection version of the LE9 used in 2009-11 2.4L HHR’s.

I have to wonder how fast that engine was spinning when it let go....

This is why I suggest changing the chains as preventative maintenance, don’t wait till there’s a code, 85 to 90 thousand miles.
