@906UP might have some insight?
thats what i fear its gnarly trying to find a cost effective solution for the customer, first a bath, then what kinda special tools needed or how to fix this, might be 2g in canada here to repair, price out whats wore, jug, oil , pump, cam , head, bearing kit gasket kit i could go onYikes.....that's not valve lash!!! You got a rod knocking
no worries pulling the engine is no big deal i knew that the seconed i heard it after setting the lash. i like your set up!!!any special case splitters needed? if its big end con rod wear easier to buy a complete AFTMARK bottom end orSorry bud but you best be pulling the engine, it's not hard, get the manual and go step by step.

Ah ok until I read and see what I got for tools we will see. Amazon no kidding!! Just search 500 honda or is it like a generic type puller, again I’ll just apply for the manual and read thanks tho appreciate it, stay tunedYou'll need a couple pullers to the the flywheel & clutch basket off, I bought them off Amazon.
Any clues as to why or how? Dirt in intake? Submerged? Etc...... These are pretty reliable engines overall.Messed up jug piston and con rod got hot, not good
I’ll have to pop the air box and check it out. Not to sure. The sides of the cylinder show areas of cross hatch parallel to the wrist pin. The areas with nasty transfer are perpendicular to the pin, dont know if that means anything piston slap or how the piston was interacting with the jug. Today I’m gunna take the engine out and look further for more failure and build a parts list, I got a service manual from the membership hereAny clues as to why or how? Dirt in intake? Submerged? Etc...... These are pretty reliable engines overall.
Unless the air filter is missing, that damage looks like it was run without oil. Maybe a bad oil pump?I guess lack of maintenance, oil is black maybe ingestion. Excess heat? Rod is blue. Rotates still but it got hot enough to transfer.
