if you can re-create the sound at idle open the hook and get a closer look.

All hoses and plugs seem tight and secure. The engine runs well without miss or hesitation. I checked torque on the intake and was surprised to find 3 very loose, barely hand tight. I torqued all to spec. I rebuilt the Qjet a few weeks ago but failed to follow up afterwards, after several heating/cooling cycles, to retorque the hold down bolts. All 4 were quite loose so they got retightened to spec.
Forecast for next week is warm temps so hopefully I can check then to see if the whistle has disappeared.
