Does anyone recognize this? I found it floating around in the intake manifold this morning. Car ran really funny. Backfired twice and then ran really rough. I thought the timing gear miight have slipped. Got out the light and checked the timing and it was fine. Then I heard this metal banging around in the manifold. Turned off the motor and took it down. Found this in the right side of the manifold. It doesn't look like anything I've seen recently. Had the air filter off to change it three days ago and before that it ran fine.
I did change to Macro and took some better photos.. check them out. Also checked out the carb. Nothing I could see there. Also no parts missing from the air filter.. It is a puzzlement.
