I wish it was just a leaker. I just installed a new motor I built and am
having issues with it. I replaced one of the stock rods with a reman one.
I think that the spot where the wrist pin is pressed into the rod was worn a
bit, there for under higher rpms the wrist pin can mone in the rod. This
gives the motor a slight knock. So now I need to drop the pan, pull the
intake and head and drop in a new piston/rod assembly. I just cant catch a
break with this motor. On a side note it runs really strong other than the
noise from the pin...
