the pistons in the SUs on my recently acquired E production TR4 clatter  
wildly at idle and up to 2500 rpm, at least.  Springs are installed, and the  
damper oil just gets quickly pumped right out the vent hole in the plastic  
cap when the car is running.
It certainly smooths out at high speed, but the condition also makes it  
difficult to start - I need to stick a finger in each one to hold the damper  
up slightly, then get it running over idle speed.

Ideas on where to start?
