Why does a 350 Chevy small block make knocking sound?
It all depends on what KIND of knocking sound.Some people call it a knocking sound when the engine pings from pre-ignition. If that's what you have, check the knock sensor.A classic knocking sound is typically either worn bearings or piston slap.Piston slap is when there the skirt of the piston is a little small and it "pops" at the bottom of the stroke. Typically that sound goes away once the engine warms up. The small block 350 is notorious for a little piston slap and as long as it goes away once the engine is warmed up piston slap is considered to be in the nuisance category of engine sounds.If it's worn bearings you'll also see some kind of indication of low oil pressure. If THAT'S going on, the engine is "done". You can try a heavier weight oil but if it's knocking constantly that probably won't do much good.Thank You for that Answer about the Bearings and Crankshaft
On a Pontiac grand am how do you know if a fuel pump has gone bad?
there are many ways to tell if the fuel pump is bad. First i would try spraying some starting fluid(just a little bit) in the air intake while cranking the engine. If the engine starts and dies out then you know you are not getting fuel. if the engine does nothing then you know it is a spark issue.

Depending on the engine. You may see a crack or hole in the block. Plus you will hear a knocking sound coming from the engine, If you catch it soon enough there will be very little damage. But most of the time it happens at speed and destroys the engine.
