talking about clicking noise...i hear that sound on mine and others gassers....most of the time when the engine is at idle...what part produce that sound?. As i said just at idle.
The most common reason for the clicking sound is clearance in the wrist pin bearing, it's usually relatively quiet, benign, and normal. The sound that Martin's is making is loud, came on suddenly after a repair, and is a accompanied by a nearly thrown off spinner and an engine suddenly askew in it's mounting. None of these things are good signs on their own but all together at the same time is cause for some.....investigation.
thanks Jody...i asked for curious cause nobody on the club didnt know why gasser engines makes that click noise when you move the propeller and also at idle.
