We're loving the new (to us) MGB! One thing that bugs me is that when coasting downhill with closed throttle (i.e. engine braking) there are often "pops" that sound like they're coming from the exhaust.
It's a 1973 that has had the dual SU's replaced with a Weber DGV by a previous owner. It also looks like it has a "performance" exhaust and headers from what I can tell, so it sounds a little different than a typical B in general.
Any suggestions on what the "pops" could be? Recent work since I've owned it includes a valve job by a reputable shop, but I believe it "popped" prior to that.
Perhaps this is normal and I'm paranoid?!?!?!
Thanks, in advance, for any advice.
