If the sound was knock against the cylinder block wouldnt have it blown right away? He drove the car around for 2 days like that. I really dont know since this situation doesnt come up often.

we tore apart my friend’s probe’s hydrolocked engine after swapping it to see what was wrong and the rod was like a hockey stick. his sounded the same and he drove it about 100km after hydrolocking it til we pulled it out, it didn’t blow up but there was a mark where the rod was hitting the block though.
