I don’t watch videos from unknown sources that I have to download to my laptop to view.

I’m hearing a regular, rapid pop-pop-pop that could be an exhaust manifold leak. It would be more informative if you could have someone blip the throttle a few times while recording.

thank you insightful for your comments. I will check that and get back with feedback. Also I will make another video when The problem appear because as I said that the engine noise don’t happen always but randomly periods.

thank you again 😉
