hi to all,

i started my 95 fto gpx up on sunday morning only to turn it off straight away
as i was making a very bad clunking noise coming from the rear top of the motor.
i started and stopped it a few times to try and work out the problem, it eventualy went away at idle but came back when i gave it a few revs, now the noise wasnt always there it would come and go but still it sounded very very bad like a valve crashing into a piston, i took the intake manifold off and the rear rocker cover to have a look to see if i had a bent valve or if there was somthing in there floating around but couldnt see and problem, i put it all back together and started it again this time the exhaust note had changed and it was smelling very rich, running very rough too, im thinking there might be an issue with the mivec, has anyone else had a problem like this,

cheers
Breno
