    1996 Vet - Knocks when I start it

    It knocks then calms down after 2-3 minutes.  I run mobile 1 10/30.  Should I try slick 50, or another oil additive?  Any ideas other than rebuilding the engine?

     

    Thanks

    ck to see if the knock is on the top of the motor maybe a lifter is bad?
