Re: Engine knocking like a p'd off woodpecker

Since the crankshaft is a precision part, I'd bet that if you hand grind it with a drill, you will be taking the engine apart again very, very soon.

Best to replace the bearings and crankshaft with new parts. Ordering online and having them shipped might be a way to avoid the high cost of European parts.
