Hey, my friend has a 1991 honda acord EX 5spd, and he told me to take it out to see what I think is wrong with it and this is the symptoms i got, when your just sitting there it shakes a little, has a rough idle, sometimes it wont allow you to rev past 3500, when you from first to second at around 2000rpm it makes like a continuous knocking type of noise, but only when you press the accelerator. Any help is greatly appreciated.

It's broke

 

does it do it when cold or when hot or all the time?

 

It would be pretty much considered hot because it has to be driving for like a couple of minutes at the most for you to hear it. Any ideas?

 

my car has a slight knocking noise but if I let it idle for 5 minutes beoore I drive after it has been sitting for a fewe hours it doesnt do it...I am thikning with my car it is the oil pump starting to wear out.

 

Hey, what kind of things should I check for, I am bring it to my school shop and putting it on the hoiste tomorrow. It only makes the noise around 40km/h (i'm in canada) and never in first gear, and sometimes takes a little bit for the noise to start. Any other ideas?
