03 kia sorento Engine knocking after replacing water pump oil pump and timing belt

Who did the work? take it back. If it's DIY double check your work. Knoking as in metalic engine , or knocking as in gas preignition. If gas preignition, timing belt is off a few notches. If it's similar to this google: 2003 kia sorento interference engine
You may have valve timing off so much that your pistons are running into the valves. Bad news!

Hello i have a 2004 kia sorento manual 4 wheel

Caaarburetor? It's fuel injected, isn't it? Check the compression of your cylinders. If the timing is right, the engine just needs fuel, compression, and spark to start and run.

03 stratus replaced broke timing belt,crank and cam sensor it cranks has fuel and spark but no start whats up?

If your sure the timing belt is correctly installed, then check compression. you very well may have bent some valves when the timing belt broke. low or no compression will be a sign that this is the case.

How much does it cost to replace a broken timing belt on a 2005 kia sorento

Not much but what happened to the engine when it broke is a lot. Doesn't always destroy a motor but often bends and warps thing. The cost of the new timing belt should be the least of your worries.

CAN/T FIND THE SPARK PLUGS ON A 03 KIA SORENTO

The 2003 Kia Sorento with V6 has the spark plugs located under black plastic covers in the center channel of each cylinder head. Several brackets, cables, and hoses must be moved out of the way to access them. The manifold air intake tube needs to be removed on the right bank.
The left cylinder bank has coil-on-plug assemblies while the right bank has more conventional spark plug caps with sealing assemblies. The coil-packs are held with two 10mm bolts each and are difficult to get to. Use universal-joint sockets and an extension.
