OK - This is a continuation of the "Knocking Engine" thread. I had an engine knock that refused to be isolated / identified. I checked all the suggested "remedies" to find the problem. No Help. Tear down revealed that the timing gear(fiber)in my 216 ci engine was missing 5 teeth! It was oil saturated which leads me to believe an aluminum cam shaft gear is superior to fiber? Just checking before the engine is assembled with all the "good" parts
on hand. Thanks, BW
