So I just replaced my head gasket, timing belt and all those goodies.
She fires up and runs now but there's a couple new sounds.
So it's a new head so maybe it may sound a bit different than I'm used to (same head number though, but it's an earlier year). I hear an almost knocking type sound. I don't know if it's a problem or if my loud valves from before just always masked the sound.
Another weird sound I'm hearing is a high pitched whine when I give it some throttle. Doesn't really sound like it's coming from a belt. Could it be from a vaccum leak or something?
Thanks for the help.
EDIT: Update with video
Alright so I fixed the whining sound, just didn't have something tightened (idiot)
Now it's on to this knocking sound, I took a video, please take a listen.
To hear it you kind of need to listen "past" the valves if you know what I mean.
I want to know if this is just because I need higher octane fuel or if this sounds like a serious issue, and what is it.
