I decided to replace the swirl throttle shaft as it felt loose and was rattling. The arm must have been broken for a while. When I took the cam cover off I discovered the shaft had snapped between cylinders 2 and 3 and the shaft between 3 and 4 looked fatigued(the metal had gone grey). It might be an idea to tie the shaft arm in place if anyone decides to run without the link arm. I had intended to replace the broken ball with a small rose joint but on seeing the shaft I had to order a replacement.
