[QUOTE="MDCrappie, post: 335597, member: 160"] That sounds like an "external" rattle to me. Maybe part of the recoil starter? I would not have it idling quite that high unloaded. Drop the idle down to normal, and if it's still making the noise start pushing on the parts that should be stationary with your finger. My guess is when you push on the part causing the problem the noise will go away. Then you should find that a bolt, or a nut has vibrated loose. [/QUOTE]
