Consumer Description

I BOUGHT MY TRUCK IN FEB. OF '99 AND CHANGE THE OIL AND FILTER EVERY 3000 MI.. I USE MOTORCRAFT PARTS AND I ONLY USE THE TRUCK FOR HAULING SODA DRINKS FOR MY BUSINESS. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THE TRUCK IS STILL LIKE BRAND NEW!! FROM THE VERY BEGINNING,THE ENGINE WOULD DEVELOP A SLIGHT KNOCKING ABOUT 10 TO 20 SECONDS AFTER INITIAL START-UP IN MORNING. AS THE MILES INCREASED, SO DID THE LENGTH OF TIME THE KNOCK TOOK TO GO AWAY. THE KNOCK HAS GOTTEN LOUDER AND LONGER AND THE DEALER WHERE I TOOK IT ON SAT. 3/17/2001, TOLD ME I NEED NEW MOTOR!!*AK
