Re: Need help identifying a noise

Need help identifying a noise

Hi all, I need help with a strange noise. I thought I had a rod knock this spring but I only hear the noise under acceleration, not coast or declining RPM. I checked #1 rod bearing and it looks perfect. I assume The others are OK, but maybe not. I also noticed that #3 plug has a very white insulator...
