: 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.) What exactly is fuel knock anyway? Is it doing any damage?
