engine knocking and running bad
ok i have about 1100 miles on my new motor. i was driving it around the other day and it started running like crap. i was only a couple blocks from home when i happened and i barely made it home. i had to keep my foot on the gas to keep it from dying. the next day i put some new spark plugs in it thinking they were just fouled and started it up. the car took a minute to start and once started it was making a knocking sound. almost like rod knock. i mean sounds just like rod knock. i did a compression check and everything is at 90psi. any ideas oh yeah it still runs like crap

no i dont have to push my gas pedal down all the way it actually will fire and idle by it self but when i give it a little gas it wants to die and the knocking sould gets worse and i have to pump the gas pedal to get it to start.
