It might be the bottom bracket bearing, but it is more likely to be the attachment of the crank arms to the spindle. There is a square hole in the crank arm that is tapered to fit tightly onto the the tapered square end of the bottom bracket spindle. You have to tighten the the nut (usually under a dust cover about the size of a quarter that you unscrew with a screwdriver). Both sides of course. It usually requires a thin-wall socket, or a special wrench designed for this purpose such as the one shown here.

2003 AVALANCHE WON'T START CRANK BUT NOT START

if your fuel pumps not kicking on try looking under the hood in the fuse box for relays there black boxes 1in by 1in and have some one get in the car and turn the switch on and off while u hold each one if it clicks when the key is turned its good and if not swap it for one that does to rule out the fact that it might be a relay that requires the car to be running to come on

Clacking noise when going up steep hills

What you may be hearing is called "octane ping". It occurs when the engine is under heavy load and the fuel does not have enough octane to efficiently run the engine. Older engines like yours were often run on premium gasoline to avoid this. However, if you do not have the clacking when accelerating on level ground and only have it on the steeper hills, it is not necessary to spend more money for mid-grade of premium fuel. Only if the engine makes the noise under normal operation is this advised. A little octane ping in those situations will not hurt the engine. But, if you need the peace of mind, and to ensure that the clacking IS octane related, I would try one tank of premium and retest the engine of a hill you know causes the problem to see if it goes away.

Elliptical Life Fitness X7: Hearing clunk noise with each pedal stroke whether pedal fwd or backward. Used to be every few strokes now more often. Tried to locate where in central rear area it's coming...

If it clunks once per revolution, it could be the crank bearings. The brake would make a more rapid noise due to the way it is geared.

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/russell_1d1c35fa8a5a0be4
