can you feel any play in the bottom end?
i have 3 044s and 440 now and all have good tight bottom ends and have been sitn around for a long time
the bump you feel might be the flywheel comeing around and hitting the magnet on the coil
I think that's the bump, it's on the coil. I filled the case up with some Sae30 motor oil and turned it over a few times, it all feels good, even the rod bearing does now too. perfectly smooth.
