ok, so, i think my 95' gsx suffered from crankwalk. i was driving to goto work and on an on-ramp, being about a 40 to 50 degree angle, my engine rev'd out, thinking nothing of it because it's an automatic and i just figured it was shifting, rev'd out to about 5k and shifted then again at 5.5k then died. i was only traveling at about 20 mph and came to a stop. i tried getting it started again and just gunned it to the shoulder. Then it would just turn over then stall, while still being in park. Afterwards being on the side of the highway i tried again i got it started but there was an obnoxiously loud grinding/clunking sound and it would stall again. Its been sitting at my garage for about 2 weeks now and my mechanic just said "the bottom end let go." he didn't rip it apart to look at it, it was only an audio inspection, so IF it is crankwalk what would i have to do to not do it again? Would getting a new crank, bearings, pressure plate, crank sensor, and whatever else is needed, solve this problem in future instances...or is will this be forever embed in my brain as a constant problem.
