Default Oil rod hole

Went down to the garage yesterday and took off the cam shaft cover. Used a small led light and while turning the crank, I was able to see the hole in the side of the rod. What a relief.

dodge trucker. I installed a aftermarket rod and as well as I remember, it only had one hole and it was in the rod side slanted and went clear through to the bottom of rod at the crank. The Kohler rod that came out of the engine had only one hole and it was in the cap.

SawdustDad. That scope could be a handy item. However, I do not own a smart phone or a lap top. I do not want to become addicted to a phone as many extended Family members have.

J-Mech. I did see that the cap could only be installed one way. That is why I dreaded having the oil hole in the wrong position. I knew I would have to remove the piston and turn it correctly so the oil hole would be correct.

Thanks for all the help. I will be posting my progress to my other thread. Have a great day.
Bob
