...Who's there? WAIT A SECOND! THIS ISNT A KNOCK KNOCK JOKE! ITS THE NOISE MY ENGINE IS MAKING!!
My poor G.. the other night I was driving home after dropping a friend off at home, and now its making a terrible loud knocking noise. It also lost a lot of the power behind it. She told me as I drove away it got louder and louder too. The knocking sounds like its definitely coming from inside the engine. And its loud and constant.
Anyone know what could be causing this? So far I've been told it could be my lifters, my spark plugs, my fuel injectors, a valve, a gasket or a piston, and finally a crankshaft.
I'm hoping that it will be something thats cheap and easy for me to fix, due to my financial situation. But I'm also hoping that my entire motor is gone and I'll have to get a new one. Then maybe I can try and talk my parents into letting me get a SR20DET. Wouldnt that be sweet?
Well, I'd really like any input from everyone that has an idea on what could be wrong here.. I'm open to a lot of options.
