Hi Guys

Just thought i would let you all know what happened to me over the weekend. Not too happy.

Little bit of background. I rebuilt my motor about 3 months ago and all was going well until the weekend. When i could here this tapping sound in the motor. I got louder as the car revved.

I decided to drop it home and call my father as he is a mechanic. WHen he came back he diagnosed it was the big end bearings.

I spent all day yesterday pulling the motor out. After pulling the sump off we found that on the last bearing the little oil hole was clogged up with metal shavings and had massive marks in it.

Im just amazed that this happened only 3 months after the car was rebuilt.

Has this ever happeend to anyone else ?>
