Need help asap! I'm pulling my engine out of my 1998 Trans am because theres a loud knock from
the bottom end of the engine and my oil pressure was at 0, My buddy said my pump went out and also said your connecting rod bearings are shot. You guys think this is true or there could be more problems besides the bearings? Thank you!
