the CIA been on there about a year and a half never had any trouble , its cause she tryed going thrugh a puddle that was more like a rive , dont worry about it ,

i think the pump is pumping as the oil is creamy and if it was not pumping it would not mix and make it to the top of the engine ,
oil change first should be ok cause dosesnt even sound knocky like there no oil any where ,

hope its ok or she dead lol

Scuse me from being old , but if the engines knocking can you not just whip out the shells? just by dropping the sump whipping the con bolts off and ta daa.
Or is that just the x flow engine im thinking of?, dont slate me im old!

Any engine you can just replace the big end and mains bearings if its got a bottom end knock. Its also worth removing the crank and checking there is no wear and to ensure you get the correct size shells. If there is wer on the crank and its not to bad it can then be ground and oversize shells used to match the correct size.

The bearing are sacraficial and therefore wear first. So if caught in time only they will need to be replaced = no need for a full rebuild or if your silly a new engine.
