OK i was going to work today and not even 5min into my trip
I heard an loud KNOCKING NOISe......I pulled over popped off the valve cover and tried to adjust the valves or to see if anything was loose.......Well after that failed I started the car and the same loud knocking....Damn
I called AAA and now my car is home the first thing im gonna do is drain the oil then take the vavle cover off and check for anything odd.........
Does anyone have any ideas?

Can't nelp you with the transmission clik... So when you say you adjusted your valves... what excactly did you do?



The problem could be a major vaccum leak...

A loose ignition wire / loose or bad spark plug

To be honest with everyone Im kinda tired of this "ENGINE" not the car just the A20 whatever....... its time for a swap!!!!!!
Im actually pricing some engines now!!! So if anyone knows of a site or someone selling something worth it
let me know!
