A ticking progressed to a knocking my final trip of last summer.sounds like front end of the left side case. It seems worse this year gettin her out n drivin her around, more like a small hammer on the case. sort of Engine is out, muffler is off and shielding is removed the left side head is coming off, i dont see cracks around the valves, they all seem to be seated ok im guessing its a bad main bearing What should i be looking for? Am i going to have to crack the case to find the contact area if it is a bad bearing?? |
