Re: Everyone's Favorite Game: Name That Noise
Thanks! Sometimes it's frustrating but chasing noises is all part of the fun.
What would the easiest way be to check the starter bolts. If it were that though I'd think it would get better rather than worse as they self clearance |

Re: Everyone's Favorite Game: Name That Noise
Chasing potentially harmful noises isn’t really fun. Try using a section of broom handle, long screw driver or pry bar, or my favorite a mechanics stethoscope from harbor freight to help isolate area of concern from rest of vehicle, sound transmission will change in relationship to where you stand with naked ear. Too much background engine noise and too short of video to guess as to origination point.

I'll use a broom handle the next time it makes noise while idling, I just hate how random it is. |

Re: Everyone's Favorite Game: Name That Noise
Check the pressure plate fingers again. If you haven't backed off the starter bolts, pull each out, one at a time, and put two flat washers in to shim for each bolt.

Re: Everyone's Favorite Game: Name That Noise
I'd take one out and stick it in my pocket. And in the process, look at the tip of the threaded end for signs of rubbing on the flywheel. The length is supposed to be 1"".
