With it idling, loosen one by one the injector lines to each injector, see if it stops when you disable one cylinder.A v2203 is not a drop in swap, but it can be done easily enough. The rear main bearing carrier is larger, so you will need to modify your engine mount to make it fit the bolt pattern.If your noise is indeed rod knock, get it machined sooner than later, we can do up to 1.5mm mm under sized conrod bearings for the 02 series engines. These cranks are not made anymore, so if you are going to work on it, do it before your crank gets beyond the grind limit.We rebuild this model engine every week</blockquote>
