Well well. the time has come. my 96 2gnt motor has finally started to give me problems. But i was expecting this seeing how the engine has 109,000 miles on it. Well heres how it started. On my way home from work, i started to hear i small knocking. But the noise dissipated at different rpms. So i decided its time for a complete rebuild. Well I took off the oil pan tonite to find small metal flakes/chips in the bottom of the pan. Thats deff not a good thing. lol. I havent taken anything else apart on it yet. What do u think it will be that is making that noisy commotion and those metal flakes?

Well... Looks like you and I are in the same boat (http://www.2gnt.com/dcforum/DCForumID13/5646.html) You probably need a new (or reground) crankshaft and at least one rod and rod bearing (undersized to match new crank).
I'm thinking about either a bottom end rebuild or a used engine from a junk yard.
Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?

...machining the crank and the correct size bearing (already stated). the dealer sells 3 sizes and I think clevite makes 2 so you would need the sizes and have the shop machine the crank to that size. That is what is needed at least.
