well the motor is out now ! Found the clunking I believe was from the connecting rod bearing is shot.. I took a pic of the rod before I removed the cap. will try and post.
The top of the bearing was still all in tact, and the crank is still smooth.. Any thoughts if I change the bearing,cap and clean up the surfaces will the motor hold out for a bit ???
any thoughts you can throw out as to what I should do next and if just a new bearing would work ?
Tks,
Shaun
