Justin answered 12 years ago

your explanation is terrible... Your 94 Dakota has "low mileage", what is low? What did you take apart when you looked for the knock. Your getting blow by, have you don't a compression check? or a leak down test? What engine are we talking about anyway?

Since that makes no sense at all....I think he means the air filter, or crank case breather....

I'd sure hope so..... Sounds like he dug into something and had no idea what he was doing. My dakota made a bit of lifter noise that was a knocking sound... Wouldn't surprise me if it was the same thing

I have an 05 Dakota Quad Cab SLT with 3.7L (V6) and it has a 4-speed automatic transmission with overdrive.
