Can be a allot of things. timing is off, wrong gas= try different grade, low on oil= wearing out the pistons, U joint going out... to help eliminate the engine put a 2x4 up against it w/ one end, put your ear against the other end. you will hear the knocking allot better if its the engine. good luck!
