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?
