thanx ppl,
its a sort of loudish kinda knock and when i listened to it again this arvo it sounded like it was higher up, like from the head area, and you can see the motor shake slightly from the knock and the tappets are noisier than a big diesel truck! i havnt taken the tappet cover off yet and im going to get a second opinion from another mechanic first.
looks like ill have to wait abit longer b4 i can drive my beast again sux bigtime, its been over three months already... |

yeah apparently the motor turns over smoothly by hand, and theres alot still on the head, as its only 9.5:1 comp,
and every time i rev it abit (like try to get it to 2000revs) it misses and backfires out the carby LOL it spat my mate in the face, funny shit! anyway i havnt done the timing yet but by turning the dizzy it doesnt seem to
help it.
I havnt had any time to look at it properly yet |

Make sure plug leads are on the right plugs. I had a simliar thing happen and two of the leads were not on the right plugs |
