Can you help me understand the percussive clap slap that seems to be interspersed amongst the already huff and stuff exhaust note?
There’s something extra fucky up there and I don’t know what,
Please help.

Maybe it's that loose muffler tapping on something. _________________ '90 Syncro Westy w/GW2.5L |

It would be better to take video from the engine bay with the cover off. Hard to hear anything over the exhaust noise. _________________ '87 Syncro
