I recently locked up motor on 2008 crf230l. Oil had no.bronze flakes. I have all parts for completely top end rebuild valvetrain, athena big bore kit. Once i had motor torn down i noticed my connecting rod has slight left to right play in it. No vertical or back and forth just side to side. Manual gives me clearance tolerances but nothing specific about the side to side play. Can seem to post video. Should i save for bottom end now due to rod. I have no play in crank bearings and it cycles fine. So ither than rod im confident all else is fine. Also best way to flush bottom end of motor without splitting case. Any advice is much appreciated
