is the rod bearings the problem? i thought knocking had somethin to do with early detonation?

no rod knock is what is caused by a "spun bearing". typically, the motor feels the same, and will sound normal, until about 3000rpm, at which it will make a lot tap noise. some cars have been known to have Rod knock for over 10k miles without causing any other trouble. others have siezed up the motor in the same day.
