Rocking/rattling Noise

[byah]

Hey guys

got a rattling\rocking noise coming from my engine on idle...only seems to happen after it has been driven for a while...

thought it was the clear cam cover as when i put pressure on them the noise got quiter but all the bolts seem tight.

apart from that it all seems good. Any ideas as to possible causes? its a 34 gtr motor in a 32 gtr.

cheers

Aidan.

Take it to a mechanic or something, i can't hear rattles through internet words

Hey Aidan, have you tried marking the CAS position and putting the OEM cam cover back on? When I originally put the clear cam cover on the teeth on the CAS were grinding because the clear cam cover is thinner than OEM, so I had to put some extra spacers on.

thanks for the reply dude.

yeah noticed that the lower bolts had rubber spacers that were not touching the cover so i threw some more on, made it slightly quiter but its still there...

didnt actually swap the covers over so ill give it a go when i get back home. Hopefully i can sort it before dome day.

bit scared about timing...kina like the wu tang clan, aint nothin to f**k with....

use a small screwdriver or blade to scratch the position of the bolt heads onto the cas before removal then do them up in the same spot. if ever in doubt set it slightly further clockwise until you can get a timing light on it.
