odd noise from engine
the engine on my friend's curvy is making a rather odd noise. at idle it make a kind of tapping noise - almost liek metal slapping on metal. it's not in time with the noise of the engine, but there'll be a noise every second or so, but not in any discernable pattern. not terribly loud & it seems to go away above ~1500 rpm
any ideas? I have a few thoughts, but I don't want to prejudice the response with my unfounded speculation  ~andy |
