Yea. Agreed Radi. The four times, (yes I remember!) I had rods go, they would hammer with the pedal. Oh wait..five? That recording was an absolute worst, a "cold start", an hour after climbing my hill. No piston or rod problems in well over 15 years in anything, since I stumbled on the "right" oil.

Still, it sounds like a rod, idling.
