bought a 9U that has an engine knock---my plan to find the cause is to cut open the oil filters and look for metal particles--if i find particles i will remove the block inspection plates and check for play on the rod bearings
if no particles I will run the engine and try to locate with a stethoscope the cylinder that is knocking-then switch the injector to another cylinder and see if the knock follows which would indicate a bad injector
any ideas and thoughts would be appreciated!!
