Maybe I jumped time...
Well, I fired the Ranger up today since I didn't drive it and went to put gas in it, it started up and ran fine.
I get home from the gas station and it was a little rough, so as usual i found myself adjusting the mixture screws on the carb, no big.
Welll I got it idling real purdy, then gassed it some and it was perfect, did it a few more time then i hear this slight pop, nothing seemed to change so i ignored it.
I gassed it again very slightly, and heard what sounds like vales rattling, only when you first rev it.
I have video I'm waiting to upload of the sound.
Now it's idling a little rough, I haven't driven it yet to see if it rattles under load.
I'm just thinking it might have jumped, I was suspicious of a stretched chain because its hard starting. even though now, as you'll see in the other video it fires right up.
As soon as they're uploaded I'll post them so you can hear it, its pretty pronounced in the videos.
Under the hood ^^
It starts quick.
