Re:Piston Slap



My 1987 Toyota had morning piston slap from the day I bought it new untill
it finally threw a tooth from the crank, slipping the timing chain after
about 275K miles.
I was real concerned at first, but then forgot about it after the first 50K
or so.
I did try to be nice to it on cold acceleration untill the slap went away,
but other than that, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Pretty smart fellers, I'd say.
