a bit of dowel or broom handle also works as a rough and ready mechanics stethoscope. as long as it stiff it will conduct sound. a proper stethoscope isnt expensive either.

neil he said it wasnt magnetic so i doubt its the timing gears as there all steel are they not? that doesnt mean theres not a bushing somewhere failing.

Yes you're right, I missed that so thanks for the catch. That would rule out gears and lifters and pretty much would only leave plain bearings, such as on the crank or the cam/governor bearings

Cheers,
