Just got my 6 bolt rebuilt 950 miles ago. I went out to start my car after it was sitting for a few days and I noticed a loud tick almost a knock at 1100 RPM. It does not sound like lifter tick. I have dissasembled the head on the car to check for bad lifters or rockers with no luck. Dont think its a rod bearing because the noise is only at 1100 RPM, goes completely away above or below that but is very audible at that rpm. Anyone know the symptoms of a bad wrist pin? Ive searched and came up with nothing. Guess the next step is pulling the pan but I just wanted some feedback first. It sounds like it is coming from the head.
