Heat seizes...

...had a nip up sunday. I knew it was coming mind, the engine starts rattling & gets louder & louder like someone indiscriminately tapping a hi-hat on a drum kit. It has done this sporadically for years now when on a long run, but only when it decides. I can go 70 miles plus somedays & n...
