sort the video link, it could be a bottom end bearing in which case I would not start the engine again till its fixed or you can make it an very expensive lump of scrap.________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |

yep, certainly would not run that one more second.the actual problem is an out of round bearing. Personally I'd take that engine apart as you know its history, it doesn't cost that much to rebuild an engine when you consider the cost of a good replacement unit. ________________________________________ need a part number? get on here - http://public.servicebox.peugeot.comBring on the Trumpets. |
