Don't think that is it. I stand behind the company that built my engine, and it has ran FLAWLESS until now.

And my Oil Pressure is spot on.

I am thinking that clunking is something else, like something banging because the engine is shaking so much. It isn't that loud in person. I might need to look into some new motor mounts. LOL.

No air pump, infact I have never had one on this car.

When I bring it home, I will look into it more. Starting with replacing the coils, and checking the injectors harness, and the injectors themselves.

The only good thing is, if it is toast I will make it better next time.
