I would say, go look for a new car. That one has had it. You have blown a head gasket, and maybe thrown a rod.
Sounds like a 800.00 - 2000.00 problem, so is it worth fixing?

You did not give enough information for anything but a bunch of guesses. You did not, or were not, able to convey the type of rumble noise, when it occurs, if all the time or just when hot, the vehicle, year, and engine. You did indicate that you did not have a miss or performance problem. A blown head gasket almost always includes the vehicle running bad, using water(coolant), and running hot. With all of this information and not being able to actually hear the noise, it is impossible to give a possible diagnosis or even hazard a correct guess. A vehicle that has a blown head gasket does not have to have a visible water leak, water in the oil, or oil in the water. A head gasket can be blown between a cylinder and a water port. This would still cause overheating. Engine compression would be forced into the water ports and then the radiator. This would certainly cause a "rumble" as the high engine compression enters the radiator. It would also cause an air lock and the fans would not work. I will tell you this. If you lose coolant there is a leak somewhere. You could have had a secondary problem occur at the same time, it is possible. The correct answer would be to take the vehicle to the shop.

DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE ANY FURTHER THAN YOU ALREADY HAVE. If you can't figure out what's knocking with the knowledge you have take it to a shop. If you absolutley must, have it towed to your home and buy a haynes manual. The rattle can be a few different things...

well when you popped the hose off the first time you probably drained it of coolant..when you put the hose back on and kept driving there wasnt any more coolant in there so you might have cooked something bad

you damaged the motor. Take it to a mechanic shop and get it checked out.
