Oh, thank you....that's so much better. I thought my little monitor was going to explode....

That motor is very clean!

You said bearing.....did you have a crankcase bearing problem, or is from the timing assembly?

had a loud clinking noise in the engine, when it started i turned the engine off and let it sit forever, it was hopefull thinking, and i just got done with the teardown, #2 and #5 rod bearings where shot, but they didnt scare the crank, so time to take it all to the machine shop and see what they say. no bent rods and no blown up pistons, so im a head of the game i guess

I know! I actually like my 3.0, but the one thing I hate about it are all those damn vacuum lines.
