i just got home last night and my car began to overheat but the temp guage was fine so i thought it was the thermostat or something small like that. so this morning i get up to go to the gas station and all i here is a loud knocking sound coming from the engine. iam guesing i either melted a piston or threw a rod. iam gonna start taking the engine apart to day and see whats up with it. ill keep every one posted. on the bright side hopefully this means a 3sgte swap soon
