Re: ROD BEARING (Hijinx)
as in SPUN a bearing? whoa.. I wouldn't be driving a car with a possible spun bearing.. its gonna take a lot more then pulling the oil pan, then end cap off and putting new bearings in..
Drain your oil, and pay very close attention to what comes out, if ANY metal comes out with the oil STOP driving it.. you could be machining the crank/ rod into nothing

plus, once that bearing goes away you lose oil pressure and your engine is toast.
What EXACTLY does it sound like.. metalic KNOCK or a lite rattle, or a "sewing machine" sound?
