Knocking Noise On Lister LPW 3 Cylinder

Hello all, thought I'd try my luck in here to see if anyone had any ideas of what could be causing this knocking sound from our Lister LPW 3 Engine.

The noises started randomly one day about a month ago. It only happens in a specific low rev range and can occur in and out of gear. From what I can tell it's definitely coming from the engine and not the propshaft or gearbox. Have also eliminated the possibility of it being a random object in the bay rattling around.

The sound is best heard outside of the engine bay as per the video but I'll try put another video in the comments of the noise with the engine bay boards up.

Thanks in advance.

Steamdeck Won't Launch Game In Game Mode

I've followed the tutorial step by step, got it all working in desktop mode but for some reason I'm unable get the game to launch in game mode so my controller actually works.

- I've created a desktop shortcut and have added it to steam but when I click play it doesn't launch.

- I'm able to launch it fine in desktop mode via the same shortcut

Wondering if anyone else has faced this?

NarrowView App BETA Invitation - Canal Navigation

​

Hello all! Some of you may remember I posted a month or so ago about a canal navigation app I've been working on in my free time.

I'm pleased to announce that it's now in a state that's ready for testing and I'm opening the doors up to everyone here on the Narrowboats Reddit.

KNOWN BUGS: On the first launch of the app / web app it will take 10 or so seconds to load the appropriate data. You'll see the map icons appear correctly when that's complete.

You can access the beta in one of two ways:

Android

Visit https://narrowview.app

Enter the unlock code 6767

Download and install the APK. During this beta you'll need to allow installation from unknown sources when prompted by your device.

Web App (works on PC, Android & iPhone) (no install required)

Visit https://narrowview.app/app

Enter the same unlock code: 6767

For the best experience, we recommend creating an account so you can access and test all available features.

If you discover any issues or have suggestions, you can send feedback using the Feedback button in the menu at the top left of the app.

You're also welcome to share the unlock code with other boaters who would like to take part in the beta.

If you have any questions or need help getting started, simply reply to this thread and I'll see if I can help you out.

Thanks again for your support, and happy boating!
