hi all,

as the title says i need some advice on a noise from my engine.

i went into town to drop of a parcel and came home and the engine sounded more tappy then normal on tick over any ideas on this?

i'm close to the service time (oil,sparks the norm) so is this just the engine saying so.

Also the spring on the eccelerator cable in the engine bay judders when the pedal is released is that normal just seen it when the wife was reving the car for the other noise

any ideas
