it is under the rear seat. the cover under the seat is held on by velcro.
it is a connecting rod that has seized on the crank / broke and went thru the block
Usually one of the rod bearings seizes to the crank, destroying it and the crank journal. If the engine is running hard, it can seize and explode, sending chunks of the rod and crank out the side of the engine. It is usually the rod that is furthest from the oil pump. In a Geo Metro, this will be cyl 3. -Carl
Your tire tools will have a rod with a hook on the end. Maybe, Connect the other rods to it and insert it into the hole above your license plate.use the hole in the handle of the lug wrench to crank the rod counterclockwise to lower the spare mounted on a winch and cable under the truck bed. If the winch has a lock you might find the key in your glove box. Install it on the end of the rod. Use the rod with the hook to operate your bottle jack if you have one.
In most engines, yes only if the crank is not damaged and measures correctly.
Connects piston to crank serving as an arm.
on a crankshaft you have a crank journal (more commonly called a main journal) and a rod journal. the main journals of the crankshaft are where and how the crankshaft is held in the block. the rod journals are where your connecting rods are attached to.
The connecting rod has a "wrist pin" which goes through the side of the piston and through the connecting rod. It is one of the most critical fit parts of an engine.The connecting rod or con rod connects the piston to the crank or crankshaft!!!
connecting rod is provided between crank and the piston,which converts the reciprocating motion of the piston into rotary motion of the crank.
The weight of the piston, rings, and connecting rod is concentrated out at the rod journal. As the crank spins, it throws that weight around. The counterweight is on the opposite side from the rod journal to offset this weight. This is why when you replace pistons or rods, the crank is rebalanced by adding or removing material from the counterweight.

The flat spots on a crank are called journals. There are main caps with bearings both sides that hold the crank in the block. The conn rods have similar bearings & they also attach to crank journals. The bearings are c-shaped copper things that go in the conn rod & main caps for the crank.
It depends on the brand of the rod bolts, but usually 45-50 ft/lbs.
