Hi there,
The other day whilst giving it a few beans, my engine seemed to slightly struggle between 5-6k momentarily before lettings two fast pops or cracks, then it carried on revving like normal. These cracks were the kind you hear when you hit the rev limiter (like sticato shots) or sometimes when you change gear as the R does run a little rich.This happened in third gear only which I found a little strange. I had the engine looked over the next day and nothing seemed wrong and it ran fine again. A couple of days later the same thing happened in first gear but at about 4k. WhenI got the car home I could hear a faint intimitant pop coming from the exhaust on tickover, though the engine seemed to be running fine.
Has anyone had these symptoms before? does this sound familier? I thought up untill I could hear the faint popping on idol that maby the leads are on the way out, but now I'm not sure. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Ben
