    During the engine warm up from a cold engine I get a couple of vavles making a lot of noise, this noise is gone once the engine is up to proer heat. I have checked all the vavles and they are within spec so I am kind of at a loss to explain why they would be so loud until hot.

    Any ideas?

    thanks.

    On 2 wheels... just lost my hat.
    these things sound like sewing machines by design
    if everything is in spec, I wouldn't get to excited about it.

    Ok I won't sweat it then, once warm it just runs fine with normal sounds.
