As most know, my 360 in the D-200 is practically ruined! Oh sure, it still running, but not sounding well at all! Sypnosis:
Been acting up since Monday I think when I went to pass a Truck, had to manually downshift to second cause I didnt stomp it hard enough! From then on it was lifter tick! Well, that has escallated into the rod bearings going out, can hear a "Braaa" sound on acceleration. No mistaking it for anything other than a bearing going in the lower end!
Also can hear it going down the road steady, varying in volume!
So, am I correct in assuming that its a rod bearing?
And the big one, what likely went on/is going on down below?
