Shake, rattle and roll.

Post by Ib-Denmark »

Hello,
This winter I bought a new piston for my G80S 1957 at the club spares scheme. The piston is +60.
After honing the barrel to a clearence at 0.10mm (0.004 inch) it was assembled. But I have a very sharp, metallic rattle which sounds to come from the barrel? The sound is only at low revolutions. Not much difference at cold or hot engine. After 600 miles I opened the engine, but everything seems to be fine. The engine is still rattling!
Any ideas? Is this common? Could it be something else? Ignition fault perhaps?

Regards
