If I start off or am coasting and then accelerate very slowly, there is a slight clunk sound - just once. I notice on the above post by Jonny11 about he had his propshaft replaced. Could this clunk I have be play in the prop or something else. Just wonder if its something to worry about/get checked out now as a preventative measure.

Mine made that noise like something engaging at exactly 1250/ 1280RPM turns out it's the timing chain on the back of the motor.
