I took everything off my 230 to paint engine and add AC bracket above alternator.
went to start had a little trouble with timing, but got it running good, but I have a sort of loud deep knock at idle like a rod bearing double knock and is intermittent, did not have be fore, I thought it was the water pump because of the extra pressure on v belt with AC, so I disconnected the belt and noise is still there. what could I have done?

Double check firing order, and timing. Bearings do not go bad after painting, so rule that out. Fuel pump tight?

Could you have dropped something down the carb or the manifold if you had the carb. off? Sounds like something rattling around in a combustion chamber.


They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though. Same thing.
