I just bought an automatic 1993 honda accord and it seemed fine when I test drove it but now the engine is knocking and makes a high pitched noise when accelerating sometimes. the guy said he replaced the valve cover and alternater. It was fine until I tested some hills and ever since that, the acceleration sounds high pitched while it shifts and reaches about 3 or more rpms. when I got out of the car it made some faint knocking noises while running that were not there before. how bad did he screw me?

Could be low oil pressure check the oil pressure with a mechanical gauge,belt problem, worned valve lifters/camshaft-transmission could be slipping
