Knocking/noise. Stalls and stops.

Hi Dion,
It sounds like you have either blown a rod or are about to seize the engine. In either case it's not good and you've seriously messed up your engine. In the worst case scenario you'll have to replace it or rebuild it. Since buying a whole new engine is a little more expensive I'll quote you on that.
The cost of replacing your engine will come down to parts and labor. Here's what you can expect to pay on average:
Parts= $350-$1,200 depending on the quality of the engine.
Labor= 4-5 hours $250-$420 depending on the shop's hourly rate and the skill of the mechanic.
Total= $600-$1,620+
