knocking sounds, smoking, stalling. What's wrong

the mains tho dewayne? sounds like it's time for a new motor~

suspect crank can no longer turn the oil pump....threw a rod and won't be long before you're welding up the oil pan to put on your new short block~

I'm stuck on zero....someone down there don't like me~

The smoke is black and when I checked the oil, it was black too

It also stopped when I was driving. Waiting on AAA now

oh no...threw a rod...happened to my 400 impala engine installed into my 66 pickup truck...had to push it UPHILL on the 880 industrial road off ramp....thank god for parking brakes...that's all I gotta say~

that motor admittedly has 191,000....? I'd start shoppin' for a short block NEAR to the installer who's puttin' it in~....that was just a suggestion...although They aren't givin me points anymore...I appreciate the 20 point reward...'tis a wooden nickel for me~

okay...that one DOES come with a warranty, for what it's worth....who can argue with FREE SHIPPING? Returns: 60 days money back, buyer pays return shipping

but knockin' to beat the band from the heart of the motor sounds injured beyond reconciliation...okay maybe there is a problem with the intake air temp sensor....producing a rich condition...and thus the black smoke you see...but it's like havin' your beard trimmed before the beheading~

The odometer says 62000 miles on it

It was sitting for a long while plus i didn't change the oil when I got it cause it was already full :0/

Good luck Kimberly. I got to stop following this one for obvious reasons. Drive safe

How many quarts of oil do I need to change my Mercury grand marquis oil

I am sure sorry for all this Kimberly. If you would like to start a new question we will be glad to try and help you without all this other drama. (Hint hint -- fellow gurus)

very very sorry way out of line.. wont happen again

Thank y'all very much. I really appreciate help with my car problems

I was feeling messed up about the car but it put a guilty smile on my face to read yall go back and forward with each other

Lol. Glad you found some humor in all this. Sometimes a good smile is all it takes to turn a rough day around.

yeah its got pretty good a couple times... sorry again and sorry to hear about your motor...it does sound like its dead..
