Today after just having the body work finished on my 94 gt I ran into some problems on the way home from work this morning. Early this morning at about 6am, I pulled into work and heard a loud knocking noise coming from my engine. It was cold so I kindof forgot about it, when I started it back up again about 6 hours later the knocking noise was a little louder. I popped the hood and the first spark plug wire on my left had popped out of the engine block a little bit. I pulled the wire all the way out of the block and I looked down at the spark plug and it looked almost black, I could barely see it in the light, where as I could easily see the next spark plug. I pushed the wire plug back into the block on the spark plug but I couldn't push it all the way in. Then I started it back up, and it sounded fine for about 30 seconds, but then it vibrated the plug wire out of the hole. I was able to get it to the closest shop across the street(it was closed) while I was looking at it the engine shut off and refused to restart.
Anyone have any ideas? I checked the oil for any metal shavings, but the oil was just dark(no metal) Could I have thrown a rod? I'm pretty upset I just finished the car the was I wanted it and now I'm ****ed!!! -------------------- [img]http://photos-081.facebook.com/n6/081/n15913038_30266081_3342.jpg[/img]
