Lots lately 4 in a row all knocking I get the cranks turned down and replace the bad rod and away you go after endless hours of getting all the debries out of oil passages and cams tubes ect . I think this happens to these engines because coolant gets in oil thru bad headgaskets and end up with coolant additves / sugars in oil if not enuff oil changes wipes out berrings Also some years came with a 7mm oil pump was to small and could not keep up as it gets worn a bitt pump cant mantian preshure

Some old dodges used a 3way speedo spliter to make cruise work haven't seen one in a while speedo went to this unit and two cables came out one to cruise unit and one to spedo head think you could just plug a legacy speed senser into one side of something like that -

I drill the hole 1/4 inch deeper and tap it then use bolt from legacy head with stud bottomed out and locked in when it runs outa threads it sticks in the unthreaded part and will hold well -
So have been able to save two ej2.2 s now by doing a head retorque my 97 impreza 2.2 and a 90 legacy 2.2 when they get high kms the heads start to work loose the 90 legacy had 537000kms on it original motor anyway I got a turn and a half on each headbolt and the bubbles in rad stoped on both cars. I was surprised but it did fix them no bubbles since have putt on 5000kms on my impreza since coolant level has not moved. When I first got it ten minute drive all the coolant in overflow. Also check coolant strength may have frozeup

Is very hard to remove all air in rear rad setup try a rad cap fitting off upper heater hose so you can fill engine before startup you will have a air pocket traped between rad and lower rad hose conection and will most likely be very hard to fill. My rear rad cooling sestem hold 20 L of coolant the more coolant the more cooling medium at any rate make shure no air in engine or could damage it
