Default Re: Timing gear knock

I am relieved to hear you say that Tom.
I respect your advice and opinions greatly.
Do you think .008 backlash measured accurately with a DTI can make a loud knock at idle as in my videos?
I am going to remove the gear just to check it, but dont think I can get the crank gear off without pulling the motor.
Re middle main I have a posting showing a members broken babbit after only 15000 miles on a non couterweighted crank. I am still deciding how to fix it.
