Black5spdZ Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 My car is a 92 5spd z, i just bought the car the guy sadi the motor was rebuilt right before i bought it. Now i here a knock from the bottom end between 3k-4k and thats it under light throttle applications through the first three gears. I noticed it about three weeks ago and havent heard it since untill tonight now it sounds louder. should i pull the pan and check bearing clearances>??? the guy said the crank was ground .010 and he seemed to know what he was doing is it possible that one of the rod caps is incorrectly torqued?

Black5spdZ Posted September 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 well the best i can diagnose is a rod bearing so it looks like i have a winter project maybe a swap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
