So at first I thought it was my suspension but now am beginning to think it's my engine knocking. it'll knock in 3rd and 4th gear. As I accelerate, the knock will accelerate and vice versa. Am I screwed? If it's knocking, will it make it through winter? I just need it to make it through winter so I can finally do a swap. If I have to granny drive it to make it through, I'll have to. I can't risk having the engine die on me frown.gif Thanks.

try to take a video of the sound, easier to point the sound with audio...but for you try either a mechanics stethascope or a tube put to your ear to hear the engine at idle then have some one bring it to the engine speed it would be when the knocking is happening... then you can see if its from engine or not. also try rolling in 3rd or 4th and shift into neutral and see if the knocking is still there, if not its probably your trans.good luck sorry i cant help further.
