    Mysterious knock or loud tick in engine

    It is just because of my experience that I ask the question. Indeed a complete disassembly/overhaul would bring the problem to light and fix. BUT this would be an overkill in all possibility. Tapping in the experience of the owners is always good practice. Now that said, I had hardly any time...

    Mysterious knock or loud tick in engine

    No problem, i know it is next to impossible unless one experienced a similar thing. And NO, it is not vibration related. And, strangly enough, we cannot locate it not with the screwdriver trick nor with an automotive stethoscope. it oroginates "somewhere" under the inletmanifold, from the...

    Mysterious knock or loud tick in engine

    I know, my ball too it fogged up. The fact is it is NOT in sync with the enige speed, so it is NOT crank or camshaft related not valve related. It IS load related, gets louder with engine load. It is not even constant, sometimes it knock at a steady rithm and then, all of the sudden...

    Mysterious knock or loud tick in engine

    Mysterious knock or loud tick in engine

    OK, tell me where to start, take off both heads ? Chances are indeed the I see more, like a loose liner = unecessary work as enigine is trash. Chances are that I see nothing. It is just to maximize efficiency that I ask your knowledge base, more know more and this is something I never...

    Mysterious knock or loud tick in engine

    I say it in the post, I should do a compression test but had no time yet. And a compression test will only tell me which cylinder is faulty, the fault iI should be able to see when the head is off but still not the cause. I thougt this is maybe a thing which is common to these engines.

    Access mode for a P38a

    Thanks for the reply Eightinavee, I was afraid of that :( , but, one never knows until one asks :) . I am about to rebuild my compressor anyway (will ask you to sell me the seals) and looking into adapting a compressor out of a new Range (I have three lying around, one brand new). I guess...
