Knocking when running oil light comes on 50,000 miles on Enron recent oil change and new belts.
Oil pump pickup screen may be clogged (in oil pan) from lack of use causing sludge buildup.
Testimonial: "How is this checked"
how is this fixed is there an additive for oil
The right way is to remove the oil pan and unbolt the pickup screen off the oil pump. With the pan removed you'll know for sure if it is a sludge build up ,clogging the screen , or if something else is going on like a damaged oil pump or other internal engine issue. using a sludge solvent may just further worsen the situation.
Also, inspect the pan carefully, if you do find metal chunks in the pan , then you'll know something more serious is going on.

If the oil has been changed, why are you putting more oil into the engine? Does the engine use/burn oil, or have an oil leak? If you have none of these problems, then you may be overfilling the engine which is just as bad as no oil.
SOURCE: Just changed head gasket on
did you leave something in the cylinder? it could be a chunk of carbon that came loose from the intake when you took it apart, and if this is the problem it will brake up and get blown out the exhaust. but i would guess a piece of the old gasket got left in a cylinder. you may have to rent a bore scope and take a look in the spark plug hole to see if you can find the problem, could also be that you have spun a rod bearing due to the water in the oil.
