Hello all, I have just recently purchased "Little Nelly" the sport grey car from Tony. It's a wonderful car, and I am still getting used to the attention. I have been driving for around 200 miles so far and just about getting used to her, starting to relax into the seat, road positioning etc. The only thing I am not taking a liking to is the bevel box backlash, and clunking.
Obviously its fine under load, but "clonks, and rattles" at light load, or next to none.
The rattle and clonk sounds more like the original design of the compensator than the bevel box. The bevel box noise is more like that a straight cut gearbox sounds like.
You need to keep the engine revs over 2750, this may improve/ eliminate the rattle.
