Has to be a way to fix it without ditching the motor, bit hard to tell without a pic
And if you have a volt meter fitted you can see exactly what your battery voltage is dropping to while you are cranking the motor
I doubt you would be able to measure accurately enough to pick a bent rod, for you to be able to find a difference the rod would need to be bent...
