Typhoon Member 564 Member For: 20y 4m 1d Gender: Male Posted 27/05/18 12:27 PM Share Posted 27/05/18 12:27 PM ^^ correct it wouldn’t be a dud lifter, motor would run rough. shouldn’t be the crank, rods pins etc. its likely a simple problem super hard to diagnose over the net buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirhazchem New Member 11 Member For: 6y 10m 9d Posted 28/05/18 05:38 AM Author Share Posted 28/05/18 05:38 AM I was lead to believe blocked pickup reduction in oil availability to the top of the engine cause the knock. Sump removal is cheapest option oil and some black maxxxxx is why I went that route rather than changing parts one after the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoon Member 564 Member For: 20y 4m 1d Gender: Male Posted 28/05/18 06:27 AM Share Posted 28/05/18 06:27 AM If the pick up is blocked then your motor is full of sludge anyway and its on its last legs. I would have taken off the valve cover before the sump. Pop it off, see sludge then put motor in the bin. If the sumps been off before or changed then the pick up height could have been effected. do a compression check and if that's all good then take it to Ford to have them look at it and be prepared to pay $$$$$$$$$$s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
