Matt1878 Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Well again the car has let me down for a main show...Went out to get some food last night before going toJF2 and I heard a knocking sound coming from the front. Got home and after a little ghetto screwdriver stethoscope check the knocking is coming from the top end. Had the rocker cover off and there are no obvious signs of anything loose or anything.. Will have to take the caps off and inspect a little further before seeing what it actually is..I imagine there will be sufficient wear on the cap and bottom parts too. PISSED OFF IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT! For all those at Japfest or who attended.. I apologise for not coming.. I decided latest night (around 2am) not to make the trip.. See you all at JAE.
