Cr8crshr's Motor Problems found, We think?

[cr8crshr]

One thing that excessive rod side clearance can do is let the small end rub the piston but does that make a knocking sound. Possible, but the side clearance would have to be a lot. What's your crank end play like? If the thrust bearing clearance is excessive, then you might hear a low knocking sound. Piston pin clearance can be excessive too. What does the knock sound like?

End Play is within FSM Specs. It sounds just like a Knock...metal against metal is the only way I can describe it. Thrust Bearing is also within FSM Specs. I am here to tell ya that the first Motor is possessed....:evil3:
