View the attached file and see if anyone can determine what they think the knock may be. I have not heard it up close, only on the video. We just purchased it and want to get opinions. I think I know what it is but let’s see.
Well... on the bright side, it's a good thing your cardiologist is not hearing that sound. Sorry, man.want to get opinions
Lol... I have to agreeWell... on the bright side, it's a good thing your cardiologist is not hearing that sound. Sorry, man.
Sooo. Rods, lifters?That's not a knock, it's a tick. Usually caused by lifters. Someonea got a coronavirus project.
Not gonna lie that sounds pretty awful. My Jeep has the lifter noise and I might hear that in the video, but I hear a ton of other stuff that I don't really know. Sounds like a rod bashing around. Unless the video noise quality is bad though. Maybe it's not as bad as it sounds.View the attached file and see if anyone can determine what they think the knock may be.

That’s a fact. I will definitely be doing that when I get in from offshore. I been out here 21 days and all I had to go off of was the video. Ready to turn wrenches.Pull the valve cover and oil pan. I bet you will find the problem.
Easy big boy. I have not drove it yet. I just bought it while I’m offshore. I will be picking it up on a trailer and pulling the engine lol. I just wanted opinions of what y’all thought. As soon as I get in I will be able to identify it. It’s what we do, buy TJ’s cheap repair and resale.Holy cow... you shouldn't be driving that. Sounds like some serious lifter tick, possible rod knock.
A compression test would be a good place to start, as would removing the valve cover and inspecting. That is not a good sound.
You plan on doing a full rebuild on the engine?Easy big boy. I have not drove it yet. I just bought it while I’m offshore. I will be picking it up on a trailer and pulling the engine lol.

Mark Twain quoting humorist Edgar Wilson said the same thing regarding Wagner's music.Maybe it's not as bad as it sounds.
