ttemper Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Ok..So, I got my headgasket replaced a couple days ago. Since then, i have noticed that my car makes a knocking noise when i give it gas after being stopped. it also boggs down and acts like its not getting enough fuel or something. or like its going to die. i have no clue what the problem is. it has done it before but it went away. oddly enough, it came back when i took my car to the shop. if its not one thing its another. anyone have a clue what it could be? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balian Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 Could be a couple of things. I heard a loud knocking on my GAGT before it died and it was the valves that died. Could also be a rod about to go out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ttemper Posted March 9, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 what the hell is a GAGT? its done this before, and it seemed to have just went away. my headgasket was replaced 2 days ago, could that have anything to do w/ it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balian Posted March 9, 2004 Report Share Posted March 9, 2004 A GAGT is a Grand Am GT..lol. And I don't think the head gasket has anything to do with it. I could be wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desperado Posted March 10, 2004 Report Share Posted March 10, 2004 Those motors tend to have alot of piston slap (2.0) It could be that, or possibly to mechanic left something in the motor when he put it back together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
