This morning I started my car to go to Wal-Mart and I noticed that the engine was knocking quite a bit. Ive never noticed any sort of knocking previous to today. Im not sure if what is happening directly correlated to the engine but Im assuming it is. What exactly does this mean? Also it isnt directly related with engine speed. It will knock at the same rate as the engine speed but it isnt consistant. Like if I rev it to 3,000RPM like 3 times the knocking pattern is diffrent every time. My car likes to eat oil, I dont know where it goes as it doesnt smoke or leak. But regardless I have to fill up my oil resivoir like every 3 weeks. It was low on oil this morning. I now have the oil back to a normal level but it still knocks.
Does anyone know what this means and what i have to do to fix it? This post has been edited by MK153: Sep 5, 2004 - 12:35 PM -------------------- |

So Doge and I have pretty much assumed its a rod bearing. Everyone has been saying that it would be cheaper for me to get a new block. My question is what engine do you all think I should put in. I know everyone will say a 3S, but I dont have that kind of money. If I just wanted to get it running with another 7a how much would it run? And also, what all would I need to replace if I put a GT (5S or 5A?) engine in here?
