I would like to thank each one of you have tried to extend help to me!! It's hard to find folks that are willing to extend advise and knowledge without compensation. Again thanks!!
To follow up it's I am neither lucky or fortunate in this situation. I just didn't feel like trusting what I heard after I cranked the engine up today and ran it for ten mins or so.
I took a wood pole and stuck it to my ear and prided the motor like a stethoscope till I found the knock. It was coming from the top rear of the valve cover.
GOOD THING I TOOK OFF THE COVER. No oil to the top. I never noticed the oil pressure was low. It is a weird gauge and figured it up to be old and flawed. I was getting about ten pounds converted.
Don't look like I can pull the pan without splitting the tractor. So I took off an access plate on the side and found two pcs of bronze bearing type stock. I have NO idea what or where it came from. I found two small nuts and a broke set screw.
One rocker are had over 1/8th inch clearance.
HOW THE HELL THIS THING RUN I HAVN'T a clue. Ran great though!!
I will share pics. Please tell me what you think these parts are and what you would do to investigate further.
