Fuel knock can be caused by an injector that does not close properly. I have experienced this with a Kubota diesel as well as Detroit diesels. A stethescope might pinpoint which one is causing the problem. Hope this helps. : I have a Ford 3000 diesel. Here's what happens: After about half an hour of "heavy" working at full throttle, the engine starts knocking. If I shut it down for 30-40 seconds and re-start, it goes away. The engine doesn't seem too hot to the touch. Could it be running too cold? Could water in the fuel cause this? What else should I look for? (I have already replaced the injectors.)
