About normal, I suspect once warm the push rods will need adjusting and it will calm down.

Hi jackstringer thanks for that I was worried it was a bearing failing or something, hopefully I can get it ticking over as nice as yours. Also how do I embed the videos like you did?
Cheers

Re: Funny noise from engine
Sounds pretty normal to me. You get a whirring/whining, from the primary drive, dynamo and mag chain, dynamo brushes etc.
