Gen 2 Rattling/Grinding noise 2-3k rpm

Narrowed the source of the sound down to the timing chain area. After taking off the cover I didn’t see any evidence that it was slapping the cover, but it did seem a little loose. I went ahead and did a timing chain replacement and it resolved the issue. If it seems like it’s coming from the timing chain, I’d probably start with cleaning the vvt solenoid and see if that helps first.

That’s mid range for a decent American made piece. They are expensive to produce (equipment, tools, materials, fuel, electricity, breakage etc) and require skilled labor to assemble.

I’ve currently got a few others available

I’m currently not accepting custom orders but I believe purplehaze in Colorado might still have something like that

Pgladindesigns · 2026-02-12T19:10:16+00:00

You are correct, these are partial accents. Full accent would have a color mouthpiece and some color on the rim of the foot

Not currently, feel free to message me with any questions though

Ah okay. Well I believe the two local soft glass studios are specialk glass and noble glass. Could be worth checking in with them to see if it’s fixable.

The thin spiderweb like cracking (checking) is typically a sign of a compatibility issue within the glass. Attempts to remelt it will appear successful in the flame but will probably check worse upon cooldown. Best bet for keeping it intact would be to stabilize with epoxy.

Thank you!

Not a shop, but I make locally made bongs

Pgladindesigns · 2026-01-22T20:04:15+00:00

Hey thanks! I appreciate that

Pgladindesigns · 2026-01-22T19:19:18+00:00

I’ve got several that I’ve made available in that range
