what is the proper procedure to flush out the crank, what should i look for... the arm (brain Fart) that the piston goes on wobbles a bit.. is this ok?? and it makes grinding noises as i turn it.. bearings that i can see (left side) look ok..

1983 Honda ATC 200x-shes a beater
Past Rides:
1982 ATC Big Red 200e (miss it more than i thought i would)
1985 200x rode it for about a mile
there shouldnt be a grinding nois, there should not be ANY play UP and DOWN on the connecting rod, some side to side is ok aslong as its in spec...

If there is any rust in there on the bearing surfaces its junk, rebuild it.....if you see rust on the crack weights then its prolly on the main bearings too and they need to be replaced
