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!

Well we figured out what the problem was. We started out by checking the valves for cylinder 2, they were a little tight, but nothing way out of the ordinary. Then we get it set up for a valve check on cylinder 1. It was extremely loose and it seems to be that the valve seat for the intake valve I believe it was has slid out and is allowing the piston to hit the valve. Hopefully it was caught early enough and we can have it back together again sometime early next week. Thanks for your help everyone
