..... to get a bit more indepth then. Basically the bottom end in my golf is rattling, as if the conrod bearings are on the way out, again, but also when the engine is running, and I look down at the crankshaft pully, it almost looks like is spinning in an oval rotation, not circular. Previously when I changed the conrod bearings, I had the head off so changed the piston rings whilst I was at it. When the pistons were out i noticed that in cylinder 1, there was quite a lot of vertical lines on the bore, where as in 2 3 and 4 there were minimal wear. Again on cylinder 1, the bearings were really worn, buton 2 3 and 4 were minimal! Sooooo am going to strip down the bottom end and see what I can find. If anyone has any suggestions as to what would cause this, fill me in!! Also.. The block was re-honed approx 6000 miles ago.. Is it possible that when this was done they just fitted the piston rings for the original bore, and not slightly larger ones to take into account the point 5mm they'd probably lost, as the piston in the bore had slight side to side movement, or would this be concidered normal? The reason for the original g60 crankshaft question is that if it is the crankshaft that is possibly worn, shot, would the g60 fit, as I can get a g60 forged crankshaft off a mate for nothing, if it fits, and use the 2e rods n pistons! Orrrrr if anyone may know what's goin on with my bottom end (no jokes please) I'm all ears!! Thanks for any info or suggestion!!
