The rattling is the motor pinking - preigniting.
Suggests the timing has been set too far advanced.
Go back and ask for it to be set correctly for lead free petrol... It may originally have been set up for lead when it was manufactured...
Technically the words are: "retard the ignition timing to prevent it pinking"
hi,I took it back to the numnuts and when I got it back it was slugish and gutless but no pinkng when I timed it,it was way out from 8btd,so I moved it to 8btd.Result more acceleration but as said on came the pinking.To retard the ignition do I move the distributor back from 8 btd to say 12 btd.thanks in advance.cheers kiwishane
