DURING AN AERIAL APPLICATION SWATH THE ENGINE QUIT. A FORCED LANDING WAS MADE WHICH RESULTED IN A COLLISION WITH A ROAD AND A DITCH. A POST ACCIDENT EXAMINATION OF THE ENGINE REVEALED THAT THE NUMBER ONE CYLINDER HAD FRACTURED. THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF OVER HEATING OF THE CYLINDER AND THE AIRCRAFT RECORDS INDICATED THAT THE ANNUAL INSPECTION HAD BEEN CONDUCTED.
