Hey peoples...... Pretty much my question is what do you guys think this could be? It sounds like rocks/pebbles are clanking around in my engine. When I rev the engine it gets louder and as the rpms go down it slows/quiets(the rock like noise). Would this be a fuel filter issue? The celi has been sitting for a while now and the gas is kinda old but i'm gonna drain that out soon before actually driving it. Let me know what you guys and ladies think. Thanks ahead of time

I'm going with soulshadow on this.
Mine was doing it a while back, less than a month later, slung a rod. Something to check out. That's just my .02 cents. Mine when it did it though, when you would engage the clutch the lights would dim when it was making the sound. I'd turn the car of once or twice and it would stop. Since replacing my engine, it has yet to do it. A local shop told me it was the starter going bad, a family friend who owns a shop installed my new engine and said nothing was wrong with the old starter, they were just looking for money. Good luck though, and hope that isn't what it is, it's a little expensive to fix. --------------------  |
