You've starved all your engine bearings, and now you spun a rod bearing if indeed the engine is knocking. I've never heard of a thing using distilled water to clean the inside of your engine. Water ruins the engine is you get water in it somehow. It doesn't matter is its distilled water, or regular water. I hope that your seriously joking here! What a darn waste of a K20 engine!

Actually, I designed water. Its original purpose was to be a lubricant, but it was a complete failure. In my frustration I sold the design for $20. Turns out it was useful for other things such as sustaining life, etc. etc. Should've held out for at least $50.

And by the way, holy old thread!

you should never steam clean an engine unless you protect all your wiring within the engine bay. It causes condensation to form in the wires which can then cause problems for you.

Try some orange juice - the pulp will fix that knock right up.
