sounds like when my crank bearing went out, but it's probably that sn-95 causing it

spun bearing = more of a rattle

broke rod = knock

and if there is mettal shavings in there they will probaly be stuck in your oil pickup check the screen

1st stage = light, light ticking / scratching. Sounds like the timing belt is rubbing
2nd = noise has gotten louder
3rd = You hear a knock at a certain RPM, not below it
4th = constant knocking, makes you sad

when my crank bearing went, when you revved and released the gas it would sound like thirty oompa-loompas coming from the engine bay but it would also rattle if idle fell below 700

Have you dropped the oil pan yet? I'll actually be back in CFL next week so if you need any help with this issue I'll be glad to lend a hand.

Nah not yet. My friend has my jackstands and i haven't ask if he was done with them yet. Im going over there in about an hour to get em. Once i do that im draining the oil, check for shavings then dropping it.

A helping hand would be nice since no one i know around here knows anything about hondas


Thanks,

Mondo

Sometimes if its a spun bearing , rod knock or some kind of piston slap you can kill each cylinder one at a time by pulling the spark plug wire and it takes the load off that cylinder and the noise will go away this is how I figgure out which cylinder was the problem on a car I was working on at work

Yeah I would pull it from the valve cover its alot safer, and dont lean on the car becuase if you have a leaking spark plug wire it will jump through you becuase your grounded to the fender or core support .

pulled oil pan and ran magnet thru drained oil. Found like grits of sand sized metal shavings. Guess it means i did spin one. When i rotate the crank manually is there anything else i can try to look for to make sure thats it? Or is it i gota dissassemble to know for sure.

update!!!!!! check this out. I think i found my problem and i dont think its anything internal.

I pulled hte motor out and seperated the tranny from it. I got a new clutch so i started taking the old one out. When i went loosen the flywheel i noticed it was sticking out a bit, not alot but noticable that you can tell that the bolt was loose.

Before I loosened it any further i kind of gave it a lil shake and noticed the flywheel was loose and all the bolts but 1 jiggled. I then by hand loosened every bolt except the one that didnt jiggle.

This leads me to believe that the noise i was hearing was a loose flywheel. Its not normal to be able to loosen the flywheel bolts by hand is it? If that is the case then i guess ill save the money for bearings and just get a lightened flywheel to replace the OEM one.

ok now im just rambling, but the question is what is the possiblity that was the problem? i dont want to put the motor back in and then realize it wasnt it. I also dont want to tear the block apart only to find that nothing was wrong internally.

Thanks in advanced,

Mondo


*ps* might see this same post on different forums lol damn im happy if its just flywheel.
