Well, thats a fair point about the revs, however the one i know of that bent the rod actually did it on start up.....Was running fine the night before, started the next morning, knocking noise. We couldn't believe it, took us ages to find it didn't find out what it was untill we tore it down, only to see a bent rod and witness marks on the counterweight. Strange things happen inside engines from time to time.
