I just happened to run across your video. (Yep, I subscribed). I had a ST12 Sears, 1974, that had that knock. It turned out the connecting rod was loose. I tightened it. It came loose again. I tried new connecting rod and bolts. Never would stay tight. Then I messed up and sold it. Now, I have a ST16 that is beyond rough. I've got a few videos on it. Everything was stuck from the engine to the seat. I'll be watching. Doc
Matt that was a great first video! lol I thought it was informative and hilarious sir! I love the Sears too, very addictive to collect. Can’t wait to see more on this tractor. Andy
