ENGINE NOISES

1. Knocking or pinging during acceleration - Caused by using a lower octane fuel than recommended. May also be caused by poor fuel. Pinging can also be caused by a spark plug of the wrong heat range. Refer to Spark Plug Selection in Chapter Three.
2. Slapping or rattling noises at low speed or during acceleration - May be caused by piston slap (excessive piston to cylinder wall clearance).
3. Knocking or rapping while decelerating - Usually caused by excessive rod bearing clearance.
