Hey Pablo. What causes all that ratting and pinging when I am just idol? I believe its in the clutch area. When I let the clutch out it practically stops.When I pull in the clutch it sounds like everything is rattling and pinging. thanks

Chinese Idle.

The rattling is most likely the engine turning the flywheel gear with no load. Nothing in that nether region is anything I would call precise. The floating gear could be making some gentle contact, could be the bearings, etc....try it with the cover off. Just for fun.

High pitch? It may be contacting the case or the cover. Mine did! Eventually it stopped.
