When taking off fast in my Troop Carrier, there is a sort of rattling sound that seems to be coming from the exhaust under the drivers seat. Only happens in first, when the clutch goes out and the accelerator goes in, and only when I give it a fair bit of boot.

I am in Adelaide, and I'm sure Alltrac could diagnose it, but thought I'd get the opinion of the masses first. Thanks.

I'll give it a ping ...... engine mounts need attention....... under torque, the engine swings a bit and the exhaust comes into contact with surrounds under there somewhere. Guess this would be indicated by seeing how close some of the exhaust system is to nearby hardware and if the engine's torque swing could account for that small distance.

Hiy Banjo,

Had a quick look and it was hard to tell, Probably is the case, as it only started after a weekend at robe, when I was resting on the rails and the exhaust may have got pushed up.

Will keep you posted on the outcome.
