Right then you lot...
..I'm driving home the other night when suddenly there's exhaust noise coming from the engine bay
This is a kinda 'muffled' blowing noise..??
(It was dark, so could not see if the old girl was smoking out the back)
Power had dropped too..so limped home at about 30mph.
Went to bed somewhat confused..that exhaust noise was more like blowing back into the system somehow..??
Well..next morning (dark again)..I turned the key, she started promptly as usual, & no exhaust noise...all normal
BUT..What the hell made that unusual blowing noise, & loss of power ??
(No more problems since, but my suspicious mind tells me that maybe those exhaust gases have ventured back towards my air-filter..or maybe that's impossible..?)
I do not know...but I bet one of you lot does..??
