The last time I heard such was when our 85 GL was going through it's
overheating phase. I imagine the sound was from hot spots in the engine
causing the coolant to boil. This was after the engine was turned off and
the coolant had stopped flowing.  Not to jinx you but something to think
about.

Good Luck and Drive Safely
