I TOOK OFF ON THE FREEWAY for about 5 k's and when i got off my right side head was making a really load tappety noise (louder than usual) quite loud actually. its a 1800 bay kombi.
why do they always break down just before dubs by the pub.

Start with setting the valves

there is also smoke coming from the breather hose from the case, is that normal?

depends - a light mist is ok.

Smoke machine impersinations is not good

THE NOISE TURNED out to be a gasket from my new exhaust blowing out. it is 2 months old and desitegrated in my hands when i removed it.
