| 1. Worn valve guides/seals. 2. Worn piston rings/cylinder bores. If it is knocking, you probably need a new engine. |

| sounds like you rings or valve seals are shot.. bottom line you need a rebuild or replace of the engine. Mitzi engins dontlast much over 80 or 90 thousand without wearing out |
