                                          Engine Knocks

      1. Time of injection is incorrect. Check and reset, if necessary.
      2. A bearing is loose. Examine all bearings and adjust, if necessary.
      3. A piston is seizing. See that the engine is not being over loaded. Examine the
         pistons and smooth up any rough parts on the pistons and in the liners.
      4. Carbon on the pistons hittings the cylinder heads. Decarbonize.
         Note – if the engine is heard to be knocking at any time it must be slowed down
         at once, and if possible stopped and the cause investigated. On no account must it
         be allowed to continue running, except at a greatly reduced speed.
