I don’t have a coweling on mine and the rattle is not near there. I used a stethescope all over my engine and the rattle is definitly coming from inside of there. In fact, it sounds like a tapping or tinging when listening through the scope and is not as ringy as when listened to from rider’s position. His may not be piston slap, but from what I can deduce and what the guy said, it sounds plausible for mine.

My ped was also owned by a kid who didn’t seem to be the type to baby it too much. This winter will tell when I tear the engine down and give it a complete checkup.

I wish it were the coweling, but that’s sittling on my workbench collecting dust, where it belongs.
