BOB B Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 (edited) Hi everyone. When I put my foot down a bit, about half WOT above 2000 revs I get what I can only discribe as the sound of all the valves in the engine rattling and knocking. As soon as I ease off, the sound goes, I havnt pushed it towards WOT, too scared, its very hard to pin point because it only does it on load, reving it parked up no problems. Any help or relevant suggestions greatly appreciated. Forgot to mention I have done a pritty lengthy search and there didnt seem to be anything the same. Bob.

Kirk Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 I'd say pop the cam covers off and see what's what cause that doesn't sound good at all Posted via Mobile Device Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Sometimes a blowing exhaust manifold gasket can sound very like a rattle. The gas flow under load will far exceed that under no load, which figures with your symptoms. More info please. Ring me if you prefer.
