Question Slight hesitation and ticking/tapping?...

currious, i am very currious....

i would put it in 4th or 5th and floor it, after boost is made i hear this ticking or tapping, sometimes barely at all sometimes more then ever comming from somewhere in the front end and i get a slight hesitation or some sort of bumping....

what do you think this is?, what could cause it?...

hrm, i still dont know lots about rotary's but hopefully it's nothing bad....

sounds like a spark plug boot arcing. With the hood up, spray your plug wires with a fine mist of water. Even at idle you should be able to see it arc. Tune up time.
