Hi All

I am currently looking to sort out a recently bought 1991 Supra Turbo Auto. The car is in perfect condition... all accept the following prob(s):

1. There is a slight tapping noise at idle - is this normal?
2. On acceleration there seems to be a rattle at 3000 rpm - 3500 rpm from the rear left side of the engine (lower), after this point it goes - a very loose rattle at that (mechanical)
3. On starting the ignition just clicks and after several attempt will fire up no problem... could this be a poor terminal connecting.

Hope someone has some suggestions to these probs, and look forward to being a member of this forum (a new supra owner).

Cheers

Rosco
