I have a '96 dx with a d16y7 motor. The engine has 216k miles on it and isn't in perfect condition. Lately it seems to have gotten worse. Sometimes at idle, the engine seems to make a rapid tapping or knocking sound. I'm hard of hearing so its a little hard to describe better. I can feel the engine kind of shuddering when it does this. When I give it a little gas it smoothens out. It doesn't do this all the time, but if I'm at a standstill long enough, I can count on this happening.
Can anyone give me an idea of what this might be?
