Hey, just for my piece of mind I was wondering what our engines normally sound like when they are running in good nick.
Here is what mine sounds like:

Re: Normal engine noise?
Sounds ok to me.
Hard to tell from the recording.
But there might be a little valve clatter.
Was the engine fully warmed to operating temperature?

Almost, about 170. Most of the clatter emanates from around the fuel pump.Was the engine fully warmed to operating temperature?
