Ive had that before on my old bugeye and if turned it off and back on would stop. I cant say what it was tho and was fine in the 4-5years i owned it. I forgot about it until i read this post so interested myself.

Yeah bit of an odd one to be honest..... I've recently done an oil change so I was thinking it could have been a stuck lifter maybe? Took the boost solinoid off today and gave it a clean just to see if there was anything blocking it.... took it for a few drives today but hasn't done it since last night.. confused lol !
