2.2 lost its life

Well have 3.5 years of abuse and 118k miles. Going from NA bolt ons to 2.8 pulley supercharged and now just converted to E85 for a whole 5 days she started knocking.

Stretched her legs on a nice LONG pull and started studdering and then the knocking came.

Pulled valve cover and everything was tight and intact. So wrist pin or rod bearing is what im thinking.

Sounds like as they say you pushed the envelope too far with the mods.
