Leaking intake question...
Hi guys,
quick question, I have developed a pretty good knock(detonation?) on the passenger side of the engine and have a pretty good amount of smoke coming out of the passanger side exhaust, I know that a leak in the intake gasket allowing some oil to be sucked in will cause it to smoke but would it also cause a knock?  It is okay at idle but once you start giving it some rpm's it starts knocking.
any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan
p.s. I have tried messing with the timing and retarding it seems to
help a little but it is still there.
