Listen with a screwdriver. Identify the cylinder and you MUST exclude a big end. Loud and banging is how I'd describe a big end noise, not a wide valve clearance (more of a tapping). The only way I could imagine that making a horrible noise is if a shim were dislodged, and that would be pretty obvious when you took off the rocker cover (another misnomer - no rockers under there ). Once you have identified the cylinder, pull out the spark plug, turn the crank by hand till that cylinder is at TDC and then turn it over just a bit more, maybe 5-10 degrees (use a piece of dowel thru the spark plug hole as a guide by watching it go up and then slightly down). Then push on the dowel - if the dowel/piston drops 1 or 2mm and usually with a clunk, then the bearing is spun. It's crude, but it picks up a well spun bearing. Check the pistons beside as well. The only other way is to drop the sump and inspect the bearing caps. [Updated on: Fri, 04 June 2004 00:37] [Report message to a moderator]
