I think my motor is screwed
i went on the hwy to try my nitrous
sprayed @ like 80 km/hr, check engine light came on so i shut her down turned of the nitrous and i was pulling of the hwy and i hear a knocking sound! i took off the valve covers everythign looked fine it started while i was slowing down sounds like its coming from the drivers side cant tell from what! Spark plugs are good oil pressure is good dunnno what to do!! time to take it apart tomorow |
hmmm well lets start with some basics...
is the car STILL making these knock sounds? does the sounds get louder as you rev the engine? how does the car run? does it seem like it runs slower now? let's check and make sure you didn't bend any pushrods or anything.. take the valve covers off and see if any of the roller rockers seem loose etc.. i'm not trying to bring up bad news YET so let's check these thing's first :) |

ALSO also someone told me to check my y-pipe since this happend when i was de-celerating i also have a stock timing chain as well if that means anything? |
this all started happending after i was decelerating for about 10 sec's

Originally posted by ollie-99 this all started happending after i was decelerating for about 10 sec's check to make sure it's not an exhaust leak also... are you running headers? it's really hard to say without knowing what kinda knock it is or where it's coming from :blah: |
sounds like its comin from the drivers side
i got mac headers |
Originally posted by ollie-99 sounds like its comin from the drivers side i got mac headers may need to tighten those header gaskets up as well... |
when i rev it the knock stays about the same
|
Originally posted by InjectedSS and you say the knock DOES or DOESN'T get louder as you rev the engine? may need to tighten those header gaskets up as well... oliver98@Hotmail.com |
Originally posted by ollie-99 when i rev it the knock stays about the same well you could be in good shape then... you say the car run's fine other than the knock, and the knock definately doesn't get louder with engine speed, and the oil pressure is fine... so i would just start out by checking your exhaust for leaks (y-pipe, headers) tighten all those header bolts when the car cools down... |
well things aint looking good
i tightened all the header bolts i started the car and when i rev it the noise DOES get louder! I did howerver go underneith the car when it was running and its REALLY hard to hear the noise from there i hope its somthing like lifters or somthing gay like that i made a video if u guys wanna hear it add me to ur msn oliver98@hotmail.com thanks |
Change your oil, and chisle open the filter. It sounds to me like you spun some bearings, if so the oil will probably have little slivers of metal in it, it will look like glitter. I really hope its not rod bearings, but you are going to have to check sooner or later. Post back with what the oil tells you and if you come up with anything eles.
|
alrigt ill give that a try next!
CROSS UR FINGERS! |
Spun bearing?
SkAchilles beat me to it! :o |
