My spare engine has around 5mm of play somewhere in it. If I turn the flywheel, there's a noticeable clunk as (presumably) the timing gears mesh. Is this normal or is it a scrap engine?

I've just put it back together ... :) I didn't check whether or not it was doing it before I took it apart. I suppose I'd better pull it apart again.

There cant be any play at the cam gear as its split and has spring tension to eliminate any lash

more likley to be the crank

sometimes something gives a slight click when you turn it backwards, im guessing its the oil pump and the relief valve.
