Cheers Chris, barbie for Xmas mate? I'm trying to remain positive,as it's my wife's baby and i don't want to give her a bad xmas present ! would a lumpy cam give the same noise? cheers Samoh.

Bhahaha,,,, Barbie?  Mmmmm,,,, I know I'll likely get a Roasting, some Hot Tongue and Cold Shoulder,,,,, - just the same as any other day!  Ah wives, don't you love them?  Can't live with them, can't kill them,,,,,,

 

Ah, if it's fitted with a lumpy Cam, that will accentuate the noise of the Idler Thrusts, none the less, they should be barely audible.

 

Sheds are awesome places,,,,,,,,

I was of the understanding that minor idler gear rattle at idle was not a big deal? Especially if a non standard camshaft is fitted. My idler rattled at idle but disappeared when I upped the idle speed by 50 rpm or so....
