Best Answer

you might check the water pump before you do anything else.remove fan belt and check to see if there is substantial movement in pulley wheel and/or shaft on water pump. if this is not the problem, you have overheated engine and damaged bearings inside, which is where the knocking comes from

My coolant in my 96' escort turned into gel my car does not over heat but the check coolant light is on how do i fix this gel problem?
