Guys, I’ve gone through so many different issues with this rebuild over the last six months, but the car is now running great, the overdrive is working, and everything seems so fine.
However, I am continuing to hear a loud metallic click or pop about six or seven minutes after I turn the engine off. It happens every single time. Wild guesses would be the timing chain tensioner is stuck and then popping back. Another wild guess is that the starter Bendix is sticking and then popping back. Yet another would be one of the valve springs sticks on turn off. Yet another would be that the oil pan is expanding and contracting, or that the intake or exhaust manifolds are expanding and contracting. The point is – – I’ve never heard this with any other
British car.
I just can’t make any sense what I’m hearing.
Any ideas?
