I can hear it when the engine is under load. Sounds like a rod knock but not sure. Only happens when in drive and accelerating, there is no noise when in park and I rev the engine. I cant tell if its pinging from detonation or a rod knocking. When accelerating there is a faint "diesel engine sound". any ideas? I used every grade of gas and still have the issue. I use mobil1 full syn 10w30 oil, there is only 82,000 miles on the 94 exploder xlt 4x4. Engine was never abused or raced, just a daily driver, it started doing this about 2k miles ago. would thicker oil like 20w40 or 50 quiet down a rod knock? The check engine light comes on intermittently and is giving me a cm214 code with key on engine off.
Any help would be great.
