Swampy442 Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 If the big ends have gone it would knock pretty much all the time. I reckon its the top end, if its standing for so long the oil drains from the valve bucket thingies and they will clatter a bit until the oil has circulated and at full pressure. Start it, run for a bit, turn it off and see if it does it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
