I just picked up a 1990 with a 4.0 that has since been rebuilt.
Started tearing down the engine today and could not find what was causing my knocking sound. There are no visible gouges, no rods are bent, valves seem fine, I cannot for the life of me figure out what the problem is. The block seems fine because there was plenty of coolant (no leaks). The oil seemed near new(no shavings). Any one have any ideas. The guy i purchased it from said he was driving up a hill, then lost power and pulled over and got towed home. It still ran but had a knock and didnt have much power. There was no oil pressure and I dont know what else to check. Any pointers?
