The blue POS in Scott's yard makes a similar but louder noise... when it runs. Since it's coming from cylinder #8 on that one, it sounded like something in the bell housing had come loose and was rattling around.

You need to be a little more specific... there are a few blue POS's in my yard, along with a few black POS's, a varity of red POS's.

Steve O. came by today for some work and was like a kid in a candy store. Must have taken 50 pictures.

I am battleing the same issues with my 86... the sounds travel kind of far through the block and head,

but seems to be strongest at the head and at the # 6 intake runner... I also hear a bit of chain rattle

I have had two votes for lifters and 1 for a rod knock...
