J-Madd Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 The stator could have come loose and be rubbing the flywheel, giving the impression that it's seized. I've seen it happen before....other than that, yeah it could be crank bearings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is seizing up and knocking, it sure sounds like a rod bearing. The odd feel of crank rotaion may be the magnetic flux of the flywheel magnets. Just remove the flywheel and spin it over. If it still does not feel right, just take it apart. You probably will have to break it down anyway and you need to find the problem. They do not seize up for no reason.
