Thread: spun bearing????????/

Or do you mean Timing Chain? lol :P well thats cool that it wasnt a rod

yea my bad timing! i was never changed old.... soo putting it on on monday. thanks everyone. they put a stethascope look alike tool and listened on each side of the motor and it wasnt comming from the bottom.it was comming from the timing chain.

Cool man, yeah i forgot to ask you if you used an old tensioner. That will cause that noise as well.

Glad to hear it was an easy fix.

Glad to hear. I know your heart dropped for a minute!

yea it did!!!!! i was like NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL. thanks everyone. as soon as my bumper comes in i will post more pics up!

i too am gld it was something minor, it def didnt sound like a kicking to me, mo so the timing tensioner as why i asked if the the tensioer was old or new or old style or new. def sounded like the tensioner

So it's the sound of the chain hitting the block because it's too loose?

pretty much, you can get that noise from the top timing chain guide also. alot of ppl go with the newer style tensioner and do away with the top timing chain guise

I didn't even listen to 10 seconds and I could tell you that it's not rod knock or spun bearing syndrome.

Spinning aftermarket bearings aren't likely on a setup that you've had put together by a shop that obviously knew what they were doing.

My motor's louder than that! Then again, the o2 induction manifold amplifies things a bit.

thanks guys
