With that kind of pressure, although it wasn't tapping at the time, am i right in thinking the big ends must be healthy?
You don't have a video with sound by any chance so we can hear it
Me old nan always said they was weird in that France placeThe picture tells it all, Mark took the costume to France with him,wonder if he can still "dance" his cheeks?
Weird one that. I've not heard tappets like that though, but that's only me. You haven't got a plate or shield anywhere that's loose and rattling have you?
It's not always that bad though!! But always that frequency ie every other revolution
Any chance off getting hold of a stethoscope so could move around trying different spots
No exhaust heat shield on. Not sure what else it could be, I've gone round with a listening stick, only place i hear anything is one of the middle sump bolts, there is some noise from the rocker area too
Hang it up so any residual oil drips out.
the only thing the crank could hit on a v8 would be the oil pickup? i think
just don't throw it in my sumpWas just throwing an idea out there,
The problem is that you have two too many cylinders and the wrong fuel.just don't throw it in my sump
Ah the foolishnessThe problem is that you have two too many cylinders and the wrong fuel.
there should be a baffle in it as well
Yes, doesn't the pickup run along the baffle though? Then drop into the sump at one end?
