Evening guys,

Just a quick question................ What damage can be caused by using an escos with a noisy little end???

Cheers guys

scored cranck shaft and the bits will wear other bearings and score oil pump internals

not on the little ends. They will just rattle I would put one of Stu's magnet sump bolts on though.

Just don't abuse it though you could crack a piston at the pin, but I must admit never heard of it on a cossie.

Please correct me if I am wrong

some bogus garage said that was what was up wi my car couple of years ago,i put new lifters in and was quiet as fuck after 1500miles

I had a feeling it was a little end and then, when it got mapped by NMS they confirmed it.

Its not very noisy yet, only when cold.

I think i'm just gonna use it this summer and if it fails, i'll break the car and sell up.
