It had a bit of water inside the bore
Block of wood & a hammer sorted it

John,

Is that 'loose' ring not there to lift oil from the base of the sump ?
John Hill:
Yes, I am sure that loose ring lifts oil for the main bearings whereas the big end just dips in oil.  Engines I have seen with a system like that have a scoop on the big end, maybe why that one is knocking?

Some grabbed video frames








A bit "jury rigged" but it makes vacuum
