Can hear a whine from the motor now-quiet at idle, becomes audible, then gets drowned out after 1500rpm. Just wondering if it was a typical problem so it can be identified. Disappears on overrun. Also, anyone know of affordable mufflers in Perth, WA? 2 local quotes over $300 for muffler, not OEM-seems steep. The 5L is too powerful for my use, and I'd benefit from a 2nd o'drive gear. Thank the Lord there's no E.M.U. & crap in this one!. Recent run: Perth-Albany-Perth: 1140km $70@$1.48 with mild load @ 80kph avg. + $60@ $1.56 with mild load @ 90kph. 1 med. m'cyle upright angled in tray @ 85kph avg, passive driving both ways.

UPDATE:

Seems to be power steering pump/belt. Tension a bit low, noisy that side of motor. I have the easy alternator to re-brush, which I must do soon to prevent troubles.
