knocking?

[civdx94]

is knocking a common problem with the a20a. i just bought a 88 dx for 100 bucks, guy say it has a knock. where should i look to fix it. Rod bearings? Head? i'm probably gonna build a budget all motor car. cbr motorcycle carbs anyone. thanks for your input.

yea its common. first just try some higher octane fuel like 89 or 91 these older cars like the higher octane and see if that fixes it! :cool:
