2.0 Turbo - Sounding Tappety

Recommended Posts

Ant

Having a bad day -

 

On monday i swapped my 605 2.0 Turbo lump for a spare 60,000 Xantia Turbo lump i had lying around, as the engine just wasnt sounding right. It sounded all tapperty on idle and when driven.

 

So ive got the xantia all fitted and running, and guess what - sounds the same :rolleyes:

 

Not ammused lol. Now ive swapped everything back off the 605 engine except the block and head. So manifolds and wiring is still the 605. Its had new oil and anti freeze and timing belt - which is timed up correctly. Not had new plugs though.

 

Any suggestions - could leads / plugs be causing this issue ?

 

cheers
