Same thing happened to me, it first started as a very soft ticking sound then one day when i was driving it did a quick stall when i was getting up to speed. I found out it was a rod knock after taking the oil pan off and seeing if there was a loose rod and sure enough there was. happened to me in november and im still working on rebuild of the turbo 7m i got from a buddy of mine. when you have a job where you only get paid 200-300 every two weeks and schedule like mine it sucks! but im close to being finished, this was my first swap on my second car and i know more about this engine and how everything works before I even bought it! crazy huh!?
