The motor was making a loud *** clicking noise. So I shut it down and haven't started it since. Going to pull the valve cover off to see if I can see anything. Plan on replacing the water pump, thermostat alternator oil pump and a few other things.
IDE do some testing before replace anything

Well my motor is at 175k miles so I figured might as well replace some of the simple things. I'm barely getting any oil flow in the valve cover that I can see so I was thinking my oil pump is either clogged or bad.

Ok good to know. When I hook up cables to the battery to jump start it the volt gauge doesn't move higher than 9 and it just clicks like it is dead. The only way I was able to start the motor was a clutch dump rolling down the road.
