I posted something on here about a month ago saying that i appearently had a loose rod in my engine. Well i guess you people said that its my bearings and my crank may have scoring. What does that mean, how do i replace them, is there a cheaper crank than 750, and do i even have to replace the crank if there is scoring? Thanks and please help me.

What?

 

ok i assume you had a loose rod or a spun rod bearing. usual symptom would be a fairly loud knocking noise from the lower half of the motor. depending on the severity of the case you either need a new motor or a rebuild

if you insist on trying to do this the cheapest way possible grinding the crank and polishing it along with new bearings may PATCH the problem

 

ok thank you but how and where would i do that
