I tell you guys... I must have done something wrong in my past life because <br />I have now discovered pitting on the bottom journal of the crank. The motor <br />had suffered from water ingestion and we are currently working on curing <br />that.<br /><br />The pitting is quite substantial( I can feel it with my nail) and would <br />probably account for the play on the bottom rod however the bearings <br />themselves seem unharmed???<br /><br />Need I worry... Is there a process or a way I can rebuild this journal or do <br />I need to find another crank?<br /><br />Many Thanks<br /><br /><br />Stan
