ol' slant is dead... need help!

Found out knocks CAN come and go cause the way the bearing was spun, it only sometimes knocks. Regardless, a rebuild is in order!
that's quite odd.


Honestly, here's what I would do. Get some or one of your car enthusiast buddies to help you find a good, used engine or find a local wrecking yard that pulls it for you and bribe your pals with some beer and swap the motors out. You learn a lil something, get your hands dirty, save some money, AND you get the satisfaction of driving your success around:glasses7:
