rough ride
I have a 98 with auto 4.0L and have a rough ride. Ive noticed a rod knock when I let it idle for awhile. When driving down the road, when I coast or have a heavy foot, nothing seems to be wrong but when I lightly push the gas, it begins to shake badly and feels like its losing a little power too. Just wondering if that could be caused by the rod that knocks or if its something else.

Converter bolts loose? Can sound like a rod knock

What and where is that? Somewhat of a noob here
A torque converter is essentially the clutch for an automatic transmission. Have a read: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_converter http://auto.howstuffworks.com/auto-p...-converter.htm |

Somewhat? lol....just kidding.
Im hoping its just that plate and not an actual rod knock. But would some loose bolts make for a rough ride? or is that just the solution to a knocking sound? Driving down the road at ~45mph is very shaky |
