An engine knock at startup can be caused by insufficient oil pressure, which may result from low oil levels or a failing oil pump, leading to inadequate lubrication of engine components. It could also be due to worn or damaged engine parts, such as piston rings or bearings, which may allow for excessive clearance. Additionally, using the wrong fuel or a fuel with a low octane rating can lead to pre-ignition or knocking during startup. Lastly, a cold engine may experience knocking until it reaches optimal operating temperature.
No, it will not cause the engine to knock.
No it will not.
If the knock sensor failed the CEL (Check Engine Light) would be illuminated and the engine may "ping" or "spark knock" under load. Serious "spark knock" can damage the engine if allowed to continue.
As you did not say which vehicle this can only be a general answer Unlikely that a faulty coil would cause an engine to knock. Very possible it would cause bucking, if the coil is failing there would be a lack of spark. This would cause bucking/missfire, which may cause the engine to shake on it's mountings possibly causing a knock from contact with the vehicle frame.
you blew your engine dude... that sucks sorry
engine
No. It only senses engine vibration/knock.
what would cause a no start condition when engine spins in a 95 taurus sho 3.2l
Yes, just about any sensor on the engine could cause a no start.Yes, just about any sensor on the engine could cause a no start.
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.
Sounds like a rod bearing. Time for a rebuild job.
Probably not, although it could lead to other problems which would cause your car not to start.
