Paulwhite Posted May 30, 2011 Share Posted May 30, 2011 (edited) yep still there !!! have you tried the screwdriver trick? i know it sounds daft but it works. get a long screwdriver and put the pointy end on a part of the engine, now put your ear on the handle . (you can listen through the screwdriver!) its a great trick for finding noises coming from the engine, try different places on the engine to locate exactly where it is coming from. soz....you posted b4 i did lol Edited May 30, 2011 by Paulwhite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
