Re: help me engine knocking dont know where??
 

he says the oil feed to his turbo came off but i just dont see how that happened maybe the line busting but that would have to bee some crazy as pessure for either to happen , and i would def be sick if i spent the money to build a motor than some ---- like that happen even if it is just vitaras

The heat and vibration pulled it out. Make sure your exhaust bolts are tight, mainly the ones with the springs on them.

so monster D is saying that it could be a spun bearing? when i installed my motor 2 weeks ago i dont remember tighten down the oil feed line...well i remember at least hand tighten but i was too excited for the new engine and forgot...damn...and the motor doesnt knock over 2k rpm and also when i was driving back i noticed that there is no knock under 7% throttle...when you get passed 7% you can hear it in the lower rpms but not pass 2k rpm...

Re: help me engine knocking dont know where??
 

You probably havent spun the bearing yet, but you will if you keep driving it. Kinda hard to rebuild the motor with a hole in the side of it, which is where your headed. Drop the pan and check the rod bearings. Dont drive it anymore.

Re: help me engine knocking dont know where??
 

so if i do have rod knock then could i just replace the bearings or are the rods fucked too??

Re: help me engine knocking dont know where??
 

Spun bearings don't knock. Bearings that have had their clearances eaten away due to lack of oil pressure knock. There is a good chance the rod on an engine that knocks is still good (if you don't drive it any more, OP, but you've probably driven it too much already because you're a n00b who doesn't know any better) but a spun bearing fucks everything, everything, everything.

FYI, the crank is already dead. Any barely perceptible rod knock and the crank is dead. I have nothing wrong against turning one, as the rod bearing is supposed to ride against a film of oil that surface hardening bit is doesn't mean a whole lot. Especially since a little knock kills the hardened surface anyway, it's like it's there for no reason.

oh well...good thing i have a spare z6 block just laying around

Re: help me engine knocking dont know where??
 

This thread is worthless without showing us your setup dude.

Is it ghetto rigged or done up? Do you even have an oil pressure gauge besides the dummy light on the dash?

Re: help me engine knocking dont know where??
 

Your post was pretty well worthless. If its already knocking its too late. He doesnt need us to diagnose his setup. ::)

Re: help me engine knocking dont know where??
 

so your next step now is to start tearing it down,
take pics,
and then post them.
reaaadyyyyy..... go!
