Jeez!!! engine seems to be knocking but i dont get it plz help read at the bottom for the main issue but the story has some points to consider
problems keep pooping out continiously!So ok the car is running great before yesterday, racing etc, then i did a cool small drift in first nanaanan went home, turned off, went to work yesterday in another car
then today im gonna go in my 240 to work, ... battery dead and when engine is turning its like NYAAA.... 5 secs.... another turn NYAAA, ok another battery and off i go, then i start getting smoke after like 15 mins traveling, smoke smoke not a lot but enough to notice, i stop....
NOTE: 4 days ago i had a smoke problem cause a power steering hose broke and squirted all over the exhaust and engine etc.... fixed that
i check the car smoke seems to be comming from below the manifold, i check below and it SEEMS to be originating from the oil pan??? could be the power steering liquid that is still around there since all the steering rack and all that mud and stuff is still a lil wet i suppose thats the remaining PS liquid burning as the engine got hotter around that area, so ok, i noticed my fan had disconnected so i connected it again and go in the car
i get in and try to turn the engine and the engine sounds like "NNNNYAAAAA......... 6 secs.... NYAAAA 6 secs....." only moving like every 6 secs with a really slow motion, and also the smoke started comming again when i tried to turn the engine (dont know if it started again or if it was still smoking all the time) so i grab a local guy and get his battery VROOM its running, valves are ticking happens everytime i disconnect the battery
BUT! now when i started around 1800 or so i get LOUD NOISES not Ticking or valves like ussual, but LOUD NOISE like piston (like when u push a car over its limit from stop and its forcefully trying to move) or something after the car is running the noise goes away but when i clutch shift when i release the clutch and accelerate it comes again until its moving faster! i dont know if its rod knock or what but its LOUD AND NASTY after like 5 mins the car started smoking again and also smoking from the middle of the car (my exhaust has holes...) but the smoke is there and its a lot, so i cruise reeeeal softly getting the noise when in low rpms, and i got safe to parking....
So what now..... i dont know what to do i dont wanna move it now, is it low on oil? a hole in the block? what can i do to guess what it is, how to fix etc... man i feel depressed now
