Re: Engine noise after deiseling event! Help!

Never deiseled before at the current timing setting and fuel. Premium should suppress knock but the tick increases as RPMs increase. I've only noticed it idling in the shop. Opened the hood and increased RPMs while in neutral and tick increases also. Have not driven it since I noticed it yesterday.

A mechanic I trust indicated that it could be carbon build up in the cylinder and a piece broke free and stuck to the top of the piston making the noise when on compression stoke. He also said it could have damaged a lifter and colapsed or a cracked rocker.

Just wondering if anyone one else had the same issues and what was the problem.

Thanks
