Having missed the RND rebuilt (by minutes, I’m sure) offered by LN Engineering recently, I’ve decided to go out on a limb and have purchased a 3.6 which runs but has a knock. Since I only paid $1500 CAD for it (about $1100 USD), I am willing to put a fair bit of change into the repair/rebuild. I suspect cylinder scoring but I’ll only know after the teardown. (Oh yay, I get to produce another YouTube video for my channel!).
I’ll keep you posted.
