Whining noise

[Elwood]

Hi all
When pootling in my R4 I hear a whining sound when I am not using the accelerator, so if.comi g to a junction for.example it whines.. when I apply the accelerator again it stops. It is coming from the engine area and not a wheel.
Any ideas folks?

Without being able to hear it I'd suggest it might be a jet in the carburettor that's partially blocked, given that the sound stops when the accelerator is depressed. Is the air filter box securely attached to the top of the carburettor, as an air leak around the join might cause this as well.

Amazing. Thank you so much for replying I am very grateful. I'm going to try those later today.
