Is this a rod knock? Video attached. 91 Club Car Ds
Can anyone tell me if this sound is a rod knock? If not, any ideas what it is? I just bought it for $1,500. If it is a knock, should I replace the motor now, or just drive it until it needs to be replaced?

Sounds roddy to me.
The crankshaft often gets damaged when the rod bearing fails. There was a place that would build up and re-grind the crankshafts on those. Springbok probably knows, so hopefully he'll see this post and chip in some info. He knows lot about the old KF motors. |

Nope that does not sound at all like a rod knock, just sounds like garden-variety clutch chatter. Both my carts make that noise at times but it's not a big deal. Mine do it sometimes on decel when I'm driving at higher speeds.
