The head gasket needs to be replaced and has leaked water into the oil. would that cause what I am describing. I retraced all the wire, I changed the coil pack, I have heard the ecu could cause that. I appreciate the help
1 and 4 fire on the same time ,but if gasket gone then this would cause problems take the head off and stop messing around

Well the antifreeze has to go somewhere so its either going out onto the ground via hose or gasket, or it can get into you oil system via gasket or out the tailpipe via gasket. Since you said you cant smell it I would look for a puddle on the ground or in the oil. But since you said its knocking i would have to say head gasket is leaking antifreeze into the oil.... Pull out your engine oil dipstick and see if its white/foamy, if it is its the headgasket/head issue.

oops sounds like you had the cam in the wrong place and bent a valve or two unless u mixed the cam caps and have them in the wrong spot that will bind the cam and lock it down by the way that is a dodge engine same as a neon
