I have a used 2.0 shortblock. it ran fine. I was setting the end play and I noticed that the rear main bearing can be rotated about 1/16th of an inch (by hand). it is not loose but I can move it.
Is it time to stick a fork in it? Is this bottom end done? |

Tear it down, inspect the case. if it's undamaged, measure and grind or polish the crank, replace the bearings, the cam, and the lifters, and make it a runner. The Cap'n
