Some cars will knock for th first minute or so on a cold start until the oil starts to circulate through the engine
yes,it isn't hard to get it back in time though.:)
It's time for a new engine.

Could be fuel or electrical problem. Does the car start and run okay the first time you start it? Does the engine run smoothly under load?
my 1999 dodge ram knocks when starting lasts 4 or 5 seconds then stops.
Yes, a damaged knock sensor can lead to serious engine issues in your 2004 GMC Yukon. The knock sensor detects engine knock or pinging and helps the engine control module adjust timing for optimal performance. If it malfunctions, it can cause incorrect timing adjustments, leading to reduced engine efficiency, increased emissions, and potential engine damage over time. It's important to address any knock sensor issues promptly to maintain engine health.
Yes, a bad knock sensor can negatively affect engine performance. It can lead to improper timing adjustments, resulting in knocking or pinging, which can cause engine damage over time. Additionally, it may trigger the check engine light and impact fuel efficiency. Overall, addressing a faulty knock sensor is important for maintaining engine health.
Yes, without a fuel pump supplying fuel the engine will not run.
The knock sensor on a 99 Infinity I30 is located on top of the engine near the intake manifold. It monitors the engine's combustion and helps it adjust when the ignition time becomes off
Not really an answer, more to the question. You can hear the knock at idle. However, if the engine has time to cool, it's not so audible. Also, if you hit the accelerator, the sound seems to die away when the engine returns to idle. The sound is coming from both the top and bottom of the engine.
Yes, you can unplug the knock sensor, but it is not recommended as it plays a crucial role in the engine's performance. The knock sensor monitors engine vibrations to detect knocking or pinging, allowing the engine control unit (ECU) to adjust timing for optimal performance. Disabling it may lead to decreased engine efficiency, increased emissions, and potential engine damage over time. If you're experiencing issues with the knock sensor, it's best to diagnose and address the problem rather than simply unplugging it.
Check your distributor cap. Mine was cracked and every time it rained the car wouldn't start. We replaced it and the car started every time. I don't think it's a good idea to wet down your engine, though.
