Old
Cassop Test Drive and Hill Climb - September 17th
Andy brought his Jeep over to
investigate an odd noise underneath. It only happens briefly when
decelerating and creates a noise that sounds like something metal
catching something rotating, giving a brief buzzing noise. We thought
we'd found it when we found the handbrake cable being very close to the
front prop shaft, but after pulling it further away with some cable
ties, the noise remained. Several other possible sources of vibration
were looked at, but nothing stopped the brief noise. I'm wondering if
there's a slight imbalance in one of the prop shafts, that resonates at
certain RPMs when not under load from the engine.
