It seems my car has developed a fairly strong knock as well - I knew I 
shouldn't have asked about how to ID a spun bearing a few weeks ago! Anyway, 
I have some vague idea of the broom handle trick, but how about some details 
on how to do this?
Luckily(?) I don't think I've experience the power loss that Adrian has, so 
maybe I'll be able to get away with just bearings.
