3VZE motor overheated...random knocking?
hope all is well out there with everyone.....so, motor overheated real bad. refilled with water, tried to start and motor knocked, tried again and knock, tried again and it started then knocked again after running for a second with steam/smoke pouring out of exhaust with some antifreeze/water dripping out. Guess the HG blown out but worried about knocking. Checked oil and appears to just be oil. not sure what that knocking could be coming from any ideas?

What repair are you attemptimg? What was the diagnosis? There are rebuild threads around here. The FSM is the best repair manual....the link in my sig may work for an archived copy.
