Curious 'misfire'

I put 'misfire' in coz I'm not sure if that's what it is...

When idling, the engine seems to clunk and cut-out for a milli-second, almost as if it's putting itself into gear.

Any ideas?

same here, with ART cans on, completely went away, now back with standard cans i have the same thing on warmup! (and my tickover is 1.3k)
