[QUOTE="Ol'89r, post: 1196800, member: 17212"] When you get the piston off of the rod, take the rod in both hands and pull it up to tdc, (top dead center). When the rod is at tdc, try to move it up and down. It should not move up and down. If it has any movement that you can feel, your big end bearing is worn and should be replaced. It is ok for the rod to rock side to side a little bit, but not up and down. Also, look and the little copper washers on either side of the rod at the big end. If these are excessively worn or missing or have an indication of a lot of heat, the big end should be replaced. If the piston was damaged to the point of pieces of the piston going down into the bottom end, you should remove the crank and clean everything. It is difficult to get all of the pieces out without disassembling the engine. [/QUOTE]
