410 Santana Gearbox knock and slight rattle
Posted: Wed Dec 02, 2009 8:16 pm
sorry did i post this in the wrong section?
Hi there, i have just been laying under my sj while my brother was holding the revs about 3k trying to find a fault with the bottom end crankshaft bearing or big end bearings and it really does sound as though the knocking/slight rattling noise is coming from bell housing/gearbox more towards the bell housing though. and it also has the noise of a bearing going round sounding quite rough as if its the thrust bearing.
the thrust bearing pushes the prongs on the clutch to disengage the clutch from the flywheel right?
has anyone had a similar problem? its quite a loud knock! can hear it in the cockpit when driving so pretty loud!
thanks for any replies and advice!
