curt29 Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 hey everyone any help would be great. was driving down hwy to work and noticed a ticking noise, pushed in the clutch to downshift for tollbooth, and it dies, tied turning over will rolling and nothing, tried to pop start and nothing, pulled on to shoulder and turned key off and back on and it started right up but with the worst noise i have ever heard come from a engine. like nails on a chalkboard. put a quart of lucas in it and tried again and much better just mainly a moderate valve knock. any ideas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
curt29 Posted March 22, 2012 Author Share Posted March 22, 2012 after the lucas drove it around a parking lot that i had it towed to and it seamed to have normal power, just had the what sounds like a valve knock. did head gaskets and water pump and timing belt like 6 months ago and 12000 miles ago.
