When i change gear at higher revs, just recently i've noticed a rattle, not a loud rattle, it is rather quiet but then my ears dont miss much...

Anyway, i was wondering whether it could be the box or clutch, coz it does it immediately after depressing the clutch to select another gear

Basically i pulled off my drive, put my foot down in first, but not ragging it, just gave it a bit of go, stuck it in second and BANG, then slowly ground to a hault. No idea really wat it was although the carb is outta tune so it could have been overfuelling and backfired i guess

Bloody loud though it scared me lol
Car seems fine now tho :?
