Rod knock....
Disclaimer: Im not a newb, but Im still learning, please bear with me, I REALLY dont need flaming at a time like this.
Okay heres the deal, Im pretty sure I have rod knock, internal knocking sound coming from the bottom of the engine which increases with rpms. Is there anyway to fix this without spending an arm and a leg (maybe a bit, but not too too much) or getting another engine? or can this be diagnosed as another problem? Please help, Im jobless in school and I was already hurting for money before this!!! And once again, I really dont need flaming at a time like this..

the real generic way to get it fixed is to pull the oil pan pop off all the rod caps and put in new bearings that are 1 step bigger than you have then close it all back up. this will get you by for a short while till you can do it right.

Re: (turbotime)
I had a beater 90 integra that I delivered pizzas with, it began to rod knock, so I pulled the pan and put std size bearings in it. The #3 bearing was worn out, but it didnt spin, and it didnt tear up the crank. I didn't think it would last long, but I put over 10,000 hard miles on it and sold the car, I still see it running around town. The person that bought the car knew about the bearing when he bought it. He beats the **** out of the car everyday. He told me that it smokes so bad, he started running 80w90 gear oil in the motor! 
But it just wont give up!

How hard is this to do, just wondering? and how long do you think that it will last? Also, how do I know if the bearing is worn? Please excuse my ignorance, Im learning on limited time and sources! Thanks in advance!
