I was just driving my car a minute ago and something very bad just happened. I had a concern about my revs earlier and how it wouldn't let me go over 4000 rpm. Well, I just replaced the coil and was trying it out to see if it helped my revs go past 4000. When I took it up there, something happened and a very loud knocking noise started happening. Another person on this thread had a post about a loud knocking noise that he heard when he started his car. Mine seems to be making the same kind of noise. I need help immediately! Any help as soon as possible would be helpful, please. Thank you very much.

Well of course I know I'm lugging the engine by only going to 2000 rpm but I was so scared to push it because I didn't want anything to happen. Ok and I'm sorry for saying the wrong thing, but I just went out and put the old coil back on and nothing changed. What I said wrong was I thought the noise didn't increase with the revs, but I just went and revved it a little and it does increase in speed a little bit. The noise level of the knock does NOT increase, but the speed of it does increase. So sorry again for saying the wrong thing, but I just noticed it now. I guess I was too scared about what happened to notice it earlier. Anymore help that could be provided would be great. Thanks again
