 Play in engine. My spare engine has around 5mm of play somewhere in it. If I turn the flywheel, there's a noticeable clunk as (presumably) the timing gears mesh. Is this normal or is it a scrap engine?

Re: Play in engine. There cant be any play at the cam gear as its split and has spring tension to eliminate any lash
more likley to be the crank
sometimes something gives a slight click when you turn it backwards, im guessing its the oil pump and the relief valve.
