    Need help identifying noise. Rod knock ?

    I have this 98 C1500 that knocks, I can hear it more at the botom near the flexplate and the oilpan. It more audible when I start the truck but once it's warmed up you can bearly hear it. Rod knock maybe ? Is it worth fixing this or just find a new engine ? It's got 190k miles.

    1990 5.7 TBI. So I just picked up an MT2500 scanner and have been playing around with it. I notice that the knock sensor is going off whenever I accelerate (even with mild throttle).
