Knocking on startup
Always when I start my car up for the first time or when its had enough time to cool down (like 30 mins in 50 degree weather) I get a kn0ocking noise for like 2 seconds then no more. The car then runs SMOOTH. Any ideas.
ASlso this is an EK with a B16A2 with ITR valves and valvetrain, ITR IM, and 11.3:1 CR. Also timing is set at about 18. Also I think it makes that noise at 16.
its sound from the driver side.....near the timing belt area. My belt looks STRAIGHT on the alt. Also I noticed that the belt (with the cam gear cover off) has a slight flexing (as in the belt sways/waves) of about 1/5 a cm. Is this normal....or should I maybe try and tighten it up. Hmmmmm.........
