After putting almost 200 miles on this thing I started noticing a noise. Not a super loud one, and only at idle, but it couldn't be mistaken: rod knock. Or at least it was a possibility. 

Well, before the dyno session I decided to investigate. I pulled the oil pan, found metal in it, and was very sad lol. As I mention in the video I've checked pretty much everything and still haven't found a definite cause. I'm installing new lifters and timing components tomorrow to see if that fixes it. If not, I'm thinking its probably one of the wrist pins :(

You know what you must do, K swap is the only way brother👀

Damn that sucks hopefully it’s an easier fix than rebuilding. Seems like you always be getting f*cked over smh.

I thought for sure your problem Mitsubishi would be the van. People love 4G63 but I can't say I've seen others have good experience with the DSM brand. Hope it's just lifters!

try bleeding the hydraulic lifters

Open up the oil filter and check if theres material in there. People say do a kswap but i disagree. Its overdone. 4g63 are beautiful engines. Allot of stuff can go wrong when you rebuild engines Keep it mitsubishi.

wouldnt say beautiful but definetly a PITA. k swap eclipse isn't overdone anyways. But Id like to see the factory engine in this car

Andrew Hoffman

Lol says kswap is overdone but none of that matters bro this is a mid engine swapped eclipse...

That sounds more like piston slap…. I’ve had the same issue on my 2g 4g63.

Yes. Valve lifters.
