But there is something that is bothering me, There's a ticking sound coming from the engine. I cannot find out where from, It's not a rod knock, it sounds like it's coming from the top of the engine, not to mention the other engine didn't make any unusual noises, and prior to the rebuild, the engine also made no unusual noises. I pulled the shroud off, and the flywheel isn't making any contact with anything, and I pulled the head, and I saw a touch of polished aluminum on the head, but I saw no signs of piston contact, and the engine turns over with no deterrence like it's hitting any thing. I don't know what else would cause it.
