Re: Engine knock

Good point on the lifters. They usually do not knock, though. If there is a miss, there is a pretty good chance one is stuck. It sounds ghetto, but I have solved this issue before adding some kerosene to the oil, running the car for a while, then changing the oil. A deep knock sounds like lack of oip pressure or a bad bearing, though.
