Just bought a new to me 86 Carrera - drove it home, been driving it around, no obvious issues - until late yesterday, and now today - hearing a very concerning rattle from behind me. Sounds like something banging... Doesn't seem like piston/engine - but can't be sure.
Tried to capture it in the video - not sure it is coming through or now.. if so, anybody have any suggestions?

unless its a gear rattle.. ( i dont click on links ) . i would look underneath and see if the sway bar mounts have broken away from the body
this is not a huge deal if it is and a common repair.

Turns out the crankshaft pulley was loose.... someone forgot to torque it...
got it tightened all up, new fan pulley, belt... no more weird rattling!
