Well, before you push it off a cliff, does it have the fold down bed, and can I have it :-)) Seriously, I am wondering if anyone can come up with a description of the sound of piston slap. I don't think I have ever heard it, and I am wondering if it really bears any resemblance to pinging. We all know how that sound, I just would have thought piston slap would be a bit more noisy and apparent. Exactly what causes piston slap, and what is it 'slapping' on? John
