Thread: awkward tapping coming from motor...

remove your spark plugs so it's easier to crank the motor by hand. Put a 15/16" socket and a ratchet on the crank pulley and turn it.

It doesn't sound like rod knock......sounds more like something is rattling around.

I have a mechanics stethoscope you can use to help pin-point the sound.....as long as clean your ears really well before using it. :-P
