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 -------------------- |

Could be as simple as bad fuel, a low octane can cuase engine knocking.... if you bought sme crappy fuel, and they mixed it with water this could be the problem. Go to a Chevron, Texaco, or Mobil-1 and buy some 94 Octane, and before that put a bottle of Penzoil or Valvoline Gas Treatment which removes water.
