I was checking for bent or twisted rods by putting two rods over the same wrist pin and checking to see if the big ends made contact all the way around. I fliped the top rod over so the caps were opposite one another and observed that the distance between the wrist pin ends were closer together,about 1/8", the other way a little over 1/4".
