Default Car Troubles :(

Hey guys wondering if you have any thoughts......

I just drove across the country with my 91 integra rs from toronto to whistler,bc.

I had new winter tires put on my car when i was in winnipeg for the snowy conditions... the car was running great the whole time. I got a new clutch and oil change in toronto before i left and it was running great....

when i arrived in edmonton the car was making a lot of knocking noise from the engine....when i pulled over for the night i checked the oil and it was really low....i put in a couple litres to top it off and started driving across country again the next morning.... the knocking didn't stop. I dont know if i cooked my engine or not but im still driving on it fine.... the car does not make a knocking sound when the car is idle or when it is cold, or when i drive it for the first little bit during the day...

the knocking seems to happen when there is a lot of pressure on the car (LOAD) as im going up hills or accellerating harder. the knocking only goes about 12 beats per second when under full pressure.

i could use anyones advice on this....

Thanks,
Dustin
