I have a 19 year old Yard Man 6 HP push mower. There is no rust, oil / plug changed seasonally. Hit a rock with it and it stalled suddenly. Shaft is not bent and nothing appears loose. The blade is nicked where it hit. Few weeks back same thing happened but it bent that blade. Now there is a loud metallic knock when the motor is running. It is not in any rhythm but the sound is heard rapidly. Oil lever is proper.
Any ideas about the noise?
I am suspecting its internal but looking for any better ideas. If it is internal should I just run it till it dies at this point? It is a 19 year old mower that cost about $100 new so it does not owe me anything at this point.
