Please reply to the same post that you get an automated e-mail link to, otherwise I might not know you posted that reply.

I forgot to mention that another common problem is a broken timing chain guide. The chain will bang against the housing and make a knocking noise. This is an "interference" engine, so if that chain jumps enough teeth, the valves will be damaged too. That gets to be an expensive repair.
