My 2.1 engine has been off grid for 3 years, when i finally started her up it has this tinny clacking sound. Before storage it was sweet as a nut? I hope this video comes up. Any ideas of what it may be would be much appreciated, thanks!

cant see a video but its pretty much certain to be the hydraulic cam followers, check oil, water and keep an eye on the gauges and leave it running for an hour, it will quieten down

Drive it out - 4 to 8 kms later at running temp, it will disappear.
