honk-honk
Further to the thread I started earlier entitled 'bearing noise' I have now isolated the problem.
Its coming from a circular 'thing' which is located under the plastic cover on top of the V8.
This 'thing' is possibly part of the crank fumes recovery system and is located near to the rear of the engine.
I got a friend to blip the throttle when the problem was especially bad, and we quickly isolated this 'thing' as the prob. It resonates and produces the noise.
Why I was able to temporarily stop it by scooshing the poly-v with WD-40 I'll never know.
Anyways, what is this thing? Can it be repaired and will a new one cure the prob?
Has this been seen before?
