Default Re: Festiva engine rattles

I can only say that my mums HJ 202 Holden started to get the death rattle, when she fired it up first thing in the morning, had a stupid thing about reving it.
So I heard the rattle, told the old man and he rejected it.
So then I broke a M21 gearbox in my car and had to get one in the next town and off I go in mums car and it started rattling on the highway and then went away then back again and then fine and then coming back the same deal until she started rattling so I slowed down for some km thinking that I could nurse it home and then metal started coming out and bouncing off the road.

$330 that stung me and I had to put the other engine in myself and all.

I know just how Claude Greengrass feels, I I I were were were gust going to get a gearbox and ended up having get a motor as well.
