ok so i was sort of correct in what i remembered :wink: the 'loose' pulley i refer to sits directly behind the crank pully ! this is were the drive belts sit, it is seperate to were the belt for the air con sits and it does not obviosly move wen the belts are on because of the pressure but with no belts it seems to slide freely from side to side. after looking more closely and adjusting/ loosening a few belts i may have cured the main noise =D> will now more when i start her from cold (sounded like a bag of bolts this morning !!!!) but i still have a sound that i hope resembles tappits. Looks like it could be the next job on the list !

Still not sure if the said pully is meant to be like it is though !!!!!!! #-o
Sounds like the crank pulley is broken :?

Is it item 11-371? http://www.lushprojects.com/bongopartsm ... mgno=.html

Looks like dandywarhol is right - Crankshaft pulley item 11-371
If you do have to replace this, I would suggest you get the key as well 11-301J.
If the pulley has broken and been wobbling loose on the shaft, the key will very likely be damaged.

I am booked in at AL motors on monday. Have spoke to the guys and they have said they will look at it but chances are it is the damper betweeen the two pulleys !! They will look at at to confirm.

Thanks for all your help guys, a strange outcome, but another thread that may help another bongo !

Well done everyone and thankyou again =D> =D> =D>
