In our experience there is evidence of flaking or erosion in the big end bearings in many of these engines and continued checking of bearings is required. The symptom is a ticking sound and sometimes a slight drop in oil pressure over a period of time.

As the bearings fail, the conrod/piston assembly is free to travel further up the bore and as a consequence, the ticking sound is caused by the piston touching the head. This symptom is indication of imminent and rapid failure of components other than just bearings.

Bearing material may also be evident in the sump oil when drained during an oil change. It may be prudent to check the oil at each service.
