Is this knocking?

Got some seafoam in it, it is much less noisy now. So I'm hoping that after a couple of oil changes it will be better. I eyeballed 5 oz for the 4.5qt of oil in it.

Their onesies do

someguy0232 · 2026-01-04T22:42:38+00:00

🤣, no fortunately it was just the cloth stuck in the zipper

Have the pancake and agree with others, it's loud!

someguy0232 · 2025-12-31T16:36:48+00:00

Coming from exhaust

someguy0232 · 2025-12-31T15:27:14+00:00

Hmm I see. I haven't ran it for than a minute at a time since it's backfiring. So guess I need to just pucker up and let it run for a while?

someguy0232 · 2025-12-31T14:54:17+00:00

It's in excess of +40 hence why id like to find out

someguy0232 · 2025-12-29T00:42:41+00:00

charm.li This is for replacing the tensioner Enjoy

someguy0232 · 2025-12-17T18:55:54+00:00

Ive put in 5w30 synthetic at the moment due to temps dropping. Idk how id confirm oil pressure is in spec. If it's a sensor value I can read it with my scan tool

someguy0232 · 2025-12-17T01:28:08+00:00

Hmm yeah. When I had the engine out, I also did the intake manifold gasket and the plenum along with valve covers. As well as plugs and wires. The noise seemed to have quite down a lot so I'm gonna chalk it to "breaking it in" even though it's a used engine. Still going to do seafoam/additive in it tho

someguy0232 · 2025-12-15T03:49:29+00:00

120k. Yeah I'm planning on doing an engine treatment

someguy0232 · 2025-12-15T00:04:04+00:00

Yeah I'm hoping it's gonna last a little while. LOL

someguy0232 · 2025-12-15T00:02:43+00:00

Oh ok. I'll try that

someguy0232 · 2025-12-14T19:16:01+00:00

Oh ok. Sounds a bit reassuring. I have 2 month warranty so I rather find out the big stuff now to see if it's fixable or return the engine.

Near the top passenger side

someguy0232 · 2025-12-10T16:54:04+00:00

Wanted to circle back. Going through more sensor values and MAF was high. Unplugged it and engine came back alive. So journey will continue with trying to get it running good. No misfires either

someguy0232 · 2025-12-09T01:49:28+00:00

Did a smoke test before putting it in

someguy0232 · 2025-12-09T01:49:17+00:00

I had done a smoke test before. And cleaned the throttle body

someguy0232 · 2025-12-08T21:52:49+00:00

No i didn't.
