last week someone suggested changing the oil and adding some Lucas Oil
Stabilizer to see if that would stop the knock.
since i had already drained the oil in preparation for tearing down the engine,
i decided to give it a try. got Castrol 20-50
dino oil and i already had a bottle of STP so i put that in, not expecting any
change. well, so far, i have been driving it
everyday and have not heard a knock on startup. i am not a believer in
additives, so not sure how long my good luck will
last. might be because it is a lot colder now than a few weeks ago(50s-60s F),
but i am certainly a happy driver. thanks to
everyone for the help.
