HELP! Engine Knocking on '98 F-150 4.6 V8
Need Advice.
Early September of 2022, I parked my '98 F-150 after hearing a really bad bounding. I could tell it was the starter or the flywheel. With no funds for a mechanic, it sat until recently (mid Aug. 2023). I FINALLY got the hard to reach 3rd bolt off the starter and discovered the starter was not turning. Replaced it and the truck starts again.
Only now, it has a similar knocking, as you can hear in this video, but it's coming from around the area of the starter. The flywheel looked fine when I checked it and I know the starter is installed correctly.
Before I had to let the truck sit, I just had it inspected and a professional oil change with high grade oil. In fact the oil change was two days before the starter messed up.
There shows to be oil in the engine and it's not milky (thank God). But to be sure, I put 2 quarts in and it now shows as full. However; there is still a knocking. I don't have a new filter yet and I'm thinking of changing the oil myself (I've done it before), but with lower grade oil due to lack of funds.
Before I do, I'd like to some advice on what the knocking could be, so that I can check it. Funds are incredibly tight with no aid foreseen. Meaning I'll have to check out possible issues myself. If you have ANY suggestions on what could be causing this k ocking, please let me know in the comments.
WARNING!
Every single time I upload a video of vehicle issues, YouTurd ALWAYS flags it as bullying and issues me an unjustified strike. They even locked me out of my google account for 4 months over it. If I don't reply to your comments, then that may have have happened again. You can find me on Rumble, Odysee, & BitChute. As well as LOCALS. God Bless!
