so im new to the site and i just bought my first diesel its a bone stock 86 f250 ext cab 4spd with the 6.9. last week i decided to take the interstate home as it was late and i was tired, now normally i take the back roads as the 4spd likes to tach out on the highway and i try to save the fuel but long story short i pulled off on my exit and noticed a knock and miss in the truck and really got worried. ive read a few threads on here and have tired a few different things and some have helped a bit but its still not fixed. so my question is this, how does one know for sure that a diesel has a bent rod or spun bearing without a tear down? this is my only means of transport right now
