Well, just after the rebuild on my 2.0 liter, I get to enjoy the lovely sound of a stupid knock. I got home a little while ago and my dad said he heard some popping like there was a miss. I told him I didn't hear anything and pretty much thought nothing of it. Well I just went back outside to start it up again and see if I heard the popping he was talking about. And what do you know, a god damn knock is there. Definetly sounds valve related again, but I'm hoping to god it isn't anything bad that would cause a shitload of damage again. Is there any chance that I could be lucky and it's just like a loose valve for some unknown reason? I mean is there anything it could be besides a f-ed up valve that's hitting the piston and is threatening to the well-being of the motor? Please let me know. If this is a problem that's going to involve money to fix, there goes my car!

Hmm never thought about tranny problem. I'll definetly check that out too when I get home. We're checking the valve clearances first just to make sure nothing is wrong. My dad said when he pulled the valve covers off he didn't notice anything wrong. This worries me quite a bit because when the same kind of thing happened last time, we didn't notice anything obviously wrong at first until we pulled the head off. I'll check everything that has been suggested once I get home and see what I come up with. Thanks for the advice so far
