[QUOTE="2001CobraDan, post: 10757412, member: 112133"] Hey guys, I have an 01 cobra with a d1 on it and have recently had some problems. At first I was scared that it was rod knock. After my mechanic heard it, he assured me that it definately wasn't, it was coming from the top of the motor, the drivers side head, towards the back cylinder. Now at a best case scenario, I have been told that it may be a blown spark plug. The symptoms that I have been having are a ticking from the head (almost like an exhaust leak sound, it quiets down a little once the car is warmed up), popping coming from the tailpipes (sounds almost like a pop corn machine), and one time, some blackish water coming from one of the tailpipes. Other than these issues, the car seems to run fine (the temperature guage is normal and the oil pressure is still high). Does anyone know the symptoms of a blown spark plug? I have been told that these heads have weak threads and the plug can be blown out under boost. I would be thrilled if thats all this is!:banana: Help me out guys..... Thanks. [/QUOTE]
