Hi, internet mechanic here. Just add some Moreys oil stabiliser, will fix all your issues. Your welcomes 😊
Isn't that what you just put in the Ferrari engine? haha.
@RCrazyNZ basically a full rebuild cuz 🫡
How much oil pressure was it running at the track?
Cut the oil filter open to inspect for bearing material first.
If there’s crap in it, drop the sump and inspect each rod.
@pj3635 oil pressure was good and I didn't see anything alarming in the oil filter hence my apprehension in removing the motor!
@ might be something as stupid as a loose flywheel bolt ae.
Hard to tell in the video on my phone
I spoke to Rotofarian and he reckons it's because your engine goes up and down not round and round! But jokes aside, to me sounds like bottom end knock. Personally id start by taking off drivebelts to eliminate any auxillary stuff, pull the sump and inspect as well as spanner checking over the car as best I can. Lemme know if you need a hand mate
@jaxonkuvarji4510 Yeah good suggestion will start a process of elimination!
Have you checked timing chain guides and tensioners? I was going to mention exhaust gasket/s as well but it sounds like you’ve already looked at them?
Yeah had a look this morning chain tensioner is tight so is chain with no witness marks on the chain guide. Good suggestions though! Definitely areas that could make those noises.
Rear rotor has a loose apex seal, will need to flip the stat gears upside down
@smokinrotaries hahaha if only the sr20 was as reliable as God's motor the 13b!
Think you need some of that diddy lube brahhh or maybe side effects of having a rotor parked next to it 😂
gee lay off the kava aye, its making you write silly things. 🤣. It'd work perfect if it listened to the rotor!
might have a loose bracket or bolt. like one of your mount bolts might be half out and only rattles when your torquing the engine one way
Good point I might take the sump off to start with.
Take the sump off first before pull motor out and check for play or any signs of metal shavings I had this issue were you could only hear it when your on the throttle and was a rod bearing me personally I would of got that motor checked over first before I put in being 2nd hand engine as that’s a hit and miss but each to there own ratchet this happen for you hopefully it’s not to major the problem
Yeah man knew I was running a risk. But you know just thought I'd send it! Will figure it out.
@ keep us posted what it actually is once you find out bro
@@vr4gotti yeah bro will definitely do a follow up video
Put a k-series in that pulsar four-wheel drive
haha already down the rabbit hole this far right why stop now 🤣.
Its the piston bro . Its on it way..diddy got lube ? 😂
diddy always has lube.
Id say it is were your revving the shit out of it?
If it gets faster with The engine revs and happens under load then its pointing in that direction
what oil you running ? hopefully 15w60 on the track ? what other oil mods was done to the sump ?
no oil mods but it wasn't driven that aggressively on the track tbh. No oil mods to sump. Oil was 10 40 castrol. It's what I've run for close to 20 years now with no issues on track or drag strip.
pull the cap and check the rockers
Good idea.
I had a problem with the DET head. Where the lifter is located the bolt for Oil feed was loose and it was sounding bad. Check it 😄
@@GTIR640 will have a look!
Drop the sump brother and check piston play without pulling the motor apart
Great idea. Will give that ago today I think.
Need to clip the video, slow it down and count the number of rattles over a period of time to work out if its top or bottom end.
Yeah good point I should have turned up the volume on the rod knock part.
Whats the oil pressure like ?
@@paulbarnett5856 was all good, looked through the ecu logs and all was fine and still is.
Rocker arm?
@@Planb958 nar I know that sound 🤣🤣🤣
Possibly wrong rods, sounds like pistons are slapping the head.
Yeah piston slap or gudgion pins are loose are possibility.
@ just add motor up and trade me it lol
@Andrew_kiwi_AF 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Timing chain tensioner gone bad? I don't know exactly what type of tensioner they use, but have heard similar to bearing noises coming from buggered ones 😅 if they're fed by pressurized oil, its probably fine, if it's hydraulic/standalone, could be worth taking the valve cover off to check if there's heaps of slack in the chain, turn it over by hand aswell and check the slack at different points as the tensioner might suddenly compress more than it should at a certain point of rotation 👌
They are a mechanical unit, I've had chains stretch and hit the chain guide before and make a knocking noise. I didn't think to look for witness marks on this I'll take a look at that. Good point.
Mumzy sent it to hard ae tbh if was me pull th sump and pull th caps c wat u find but sounds lik my subi whn I blow th box or shaft lol
haha can't blame it on her. More my fault for sending a second hand motor.
Fuk dam bro no the feeling jst fix th subi nw th bf being a c lol😂😂😂😂
hahah hard one aye
Hampton is notorious for destroying motors without oil baffling... I'm no expert sorry
@simonwatling2203 Yeah I know it's definitely claimed a heap of subarus over the years!
Sounds like you already know what's wrong , your obviously a clued up dude , don't know why your looking to youtube comments for answers bud , that's like me having a flat battery and posting on Facebook what I should do to get some sort of interaction 😂
Tbh I'm on the fence on what to do and thought posting a video up would provide me alternative feedback to consider. I'm pretty sure it's rod knock but there aren't any metal flakes in the oil filter or oil pan. There's a lot of smart people out there who have experienced different things so thought I'd put it out there.
