Well, got quick as hell pulling motor. 2 hours start to finish.
Now...with that said... I dont know whether to laugh or cry... all rockers and valves are in place and look seated just fine...
But on my way to start taking off the front cover, I discovered that this upper idler pulley seems to have a bad bearing.. I could barely turn it by hand..... which now that I think about it... I saw the belt tensioner jumping around ALOT when I was hearing the noise... so... with that said... could this really be the cause of the knocking I heard ?? Oil looks pretty darn clean and I'm not sure if i want to pull the front cover off if theres no need....
