Motor ticking
Well when I moved my car out of the paint booth today it was ticking/knocking as soon as i started it. The sound was near the back of the motor. I moved the car yesterday and it didn't do this. Then I drove it for about 35 miles light and heavy on the pedal and stoppped at a gas station. I then shut the car off and turned it back on but their wasn't a noise anymore. So i'm guessin flexplate but why would it do it then stop all of the sudden?

Re: Motor ticking
make sure your fluids are at the appropriate levels.
if the car sat for a few weeks or more oil will bleed from the lifters. initially it will tap for some time. but just moving it yesterday is kinda weird. did you just not notice? or maybe it was loud in the shop and you didnt here it? if the flexplate is broke more than likely the noise wont go away.

Re: Motor ticking
if you can, check to see if both of your dowel pins are pushed in where the engine and tranny meet. When they are missing flywheels will break.

Re: Motor ticking
Are they on top or underneath the car?

Re: Motor ticking
they are on the sides. beetween the 1 of the nuts on the botttom and the bolt on top. check both sides. if one or both is missing more than likely you will need to put one on.
oh yeah..also if you have a vibration on hard acceleration that could also be an indication of broken flywheelness
