alright well, i had this REALLY loud clicking sound, checked my oil, and there was no oil! put about 4 quarts of oil in there and the ticking went away when it turned on. But in higher rpms it clicks really bad. what damage have i done to my da

 

I usually don't come to conclusion until i check everything that has to do with a problem, in your case your ticking. So check the valve clearances. There are too many cases where we think its this but its really something more simple or we could of done this and that. I dont know i just had too many cases like that, overlooking, there thats the word i'm looking for.

is it a ticking or a knocking?

 

if you ran without or low oil it would be rod knock

 

At what RPM does it do it at???

 

yeah i thought it was a rod knock. When i turn the car on it clicks and then just pauses, when i keep revving it it gets higher and higher, and i dont think i can rev over 5.

thanks for all the help, any more before i pull the head apart?
