  7. Only just catching up with threads, had the friggin lurgy this week & been in bed most of it .. Thanks for the thoughts though chaps .. Havent done oil yet no Paul, is on my list to do when i come back from Italy though.. Although in fear of starting a mass debate, I think a few on here have a grudge against the Castrol Magentic stuff ... But its worth a try ... Re dizzy, i dont see how it can be as i have put a brand new one on there and it still makes the noise! Or it did anyway .. Need to try again with the help of Mr Paul @simpo, defo not alternator mate, its the opposite side of the engine .. WIll be going quiet for a week now anyway as we're off on hols on monday for a week .. Will continue investigating and narrowing it down upon my return I will beat it

  11. I will take another one in the morning .. So its a little more upto date as its no where near as tappy now ..
  12. Sorry chaps its 5w40 not 30 .. Typo on the phone this morning .. But it will be changed when im back to 10w40 .. I do have a vid .. Although its not quite this noise anymore, but similar ..
  13. It's a very odd one. Thing is @marv, there's not actually anything wrong with it!! It ran sweet before but it runs absolutely perfectly now after the adjustments. There is just a very odd 'rattle' coming from somewhere, of which the sound seems to change where it's coming originating! Can't be valve train related, that's all been checked and cleared. No excessive wear anywhere. The only thing it could possibly be in the head is an lma. But it's not that kind of sound and doesn't follow increase or decrease in revs. It's not the end of the cam where the dizzy sits. No play in there. Which leads me to suspect the dizzy again, but I bought a new one and it was still there! Lol. So next port of call is, Mr @Honda Paul is going to be kind enough to let me stick his dizzy on, just encase the one I bought was dodgy. Then an oil change from 5w30 fully back to 10w40 semi. Think we'll go castrol magnetic. The. Go from there.
  14. Ha that is a great shot!! Thanks again for your help mate!! So with the help of Mr Hill, we checked and adjusted valve clearances. Some were very very loose!! Then compression tested her, looked all ok. Noise is still there though. Onto the next possible cause before I rip the whole engine out and strip it down.
  15. That was down right silly of him
