So it seems like the logical cause of the noise is rod knock. My mechanics advised me to get a good used engine, although I may be able to fix it by taking off the oil pan and replacing the connecting rod bearing. Has anyone done that, how tricky is it, and how likely is it that it will work? Also, anyone have a good, cheap B250L engine that can be shipped to California?
