I have sent another video of the engine running to AutoHunter . I was told by a mechanic that the "knock" sound at idle is more than likely the fuel pump eccentric , it is spring loaded so to speak bt the fuel pump itself and can easily have some slack in it at idle . In the video you will see that there is no knock sound audible . The 292 T-Bird engine is a solid lifter engine , thus the sound you hear when revved up .is from those . This engine is a solid runner . Hopefully AutoHunter uploads the new video soon . Thanks again for everyone's interest .
BID: $25,000
Good morning and thanks for the video. Can you comment on the "knocking" sound that is evident in the motor running? It sounds like an internal issue in the engine may exist and with no history of engine/transmission work, it is concerning. Thanks
I appreciate it -helps me consider the costs,,,,
