engine noise diagnosis

Posted by n8terry on July 17, 2005 at 17:50:50 from (63.26.88.161):

I installed a Chrysler 6 cyl in my tractor. The engine came from a combine. I listened to the engine before I removed it from the combine and it sounded great.

After installing it in my tractor and it reaches operating temperature, I can hear a knocking sound.

I am expecting a loose rod at the worse, and the best I can hope for is a loose wrist pin.

How can I tell the difference between the two?

Damn, tractor restoration is sometimes a pain in the rear.

Anyone have any advice? I feel bad enough, so be easy on me.
