Again...?You let Stanley Kubrick change the oil again?
Isnt it too metronomic to be anything but revolution derived..?
Mind you, it is too low now it's settled on its new legs, and I have to be careful of cats eyes that I dont wipe out the sump/cats/roll bar and such ! It has made 'earthly contact' down there, so its not beyond conceivable. In what sense would a manifold make that rhythmic, engine speed related noise, Tim ?
Oh...bu55er. ( in a fast show stylee !)If there’s a crack in one or two of the branches you get a rhythmic sound that’s very similar to tappets and changes with engine speed. If you think about it they’ll just be one or two pops every two revolutions.
Has the 4200 got double skinned sheet steel manifolds?
If so the you won’t be able to see evidence of a crack as it’s usually the inner that goes and the crack closes up when hot hence only happening at start up
That's the way to go far superior.Of course, this might mean I ‘ll have to swap out the system for the earlier, euro spec headers....!

Ordered.....but its a bit like the blind leading the blind with me !second that, got those and bloomin good for that sort of thing ....
I warn you they are very effective soDuly ordered so I can drive myself nuts, seeings as how the old screwdriver in the ear hasnt revealed anything...!
Even if you won’t necessarily be able to identify what is causing the noise, I promise you will be able to identify where it’s coming from.I'm sure I can find 101 places to shove it. Stirring my coffee, I have Jeeves for that !
Seriously though...its an elusive demon. Sweet as a sewing machine after a night on the drive and cold start this AM..12 miles down the road and still not ticking warm. Passed its MOT; I hear it ticking as they emissions test it. Then ticking as I make the journey home only to find it purring like a sewing machine when I pull up on the drive again.
Its twisting my melon man...
