OP, your car sounds like a diesel in the vid...definitely doesnt sound right. Get it checked out ASAP!!!

Does the sound get any louder when you accelerate?

and to be honest PTV sounds more like a clink, not a knock like this. 94er's noise sounds nothing close to what yours sounds like.

I really really really hate to say this, but I'm calling it a spun rod bearing.

Might be carbon knock as well. thats somewhat what my car sounded like when i had a big chunk of carbon fall off one of the valves and clanged around inside the cylinder for a while. But yea, get it checked out ASAP.

No it doesn't get louder when i accelerate...its a constant noise.

Im gonna put some heavier weighted oil in it tomorrow and see how that helps things. They guy thats installing my gears is also a ford mechanic so imma have him check and see if he knows wtf the noise is.

And wannabegearhead: I wasn't around when i got my cams put in...it was done as a surprise. It didn't do it right when i got it...kinda after i blew up my intake up.

teej281

did a piece of your intake get down into the cylinder maybe???

0949er

you need a tuneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

teej281

It was tuned!!! But what i'd say happened with yours 949er is that they pulled timing til the knock stopped...same as retarding the cams when installing/degreeing the cams...right??? Or am i way off???

I dunno, its possible. I dont know much about the technical end of it, all I know is that my "ticking" was fixed with a simple dyno tune. Now, if they are different ticks, I could be completely wrong (especially since you said you got a tune)


edit:

where did he say his car was tuned?

When you change the oil tomorrow, look for metal shavings and run a long magnet inside the oil drain hole and see if anything sticks to it.

Have you redlined the car sense you put the cams in?
