Default Lifters ? Rod ?
What do you think ? is it rod knock or lifters knock ?
The engine started doing that after 30min stop and restart - no knock sound before.


Thanks
Elior

It's bottom end. Top end would be knocking half that speed.

That engine also has solid lifters which makes lifter noise unlikely.
