Fresh Made Noodles

Ok so I have started to make my own noodles from scratch.

I have been making Fettuccine, how ever when I go to boil it I have problems with some of it sticking together in a big clump ball.

I am making the basic 4 egg, 3.5 cups flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 T water, recipe.   Last night I made them about 2 hours before cooking.  When I ran them through the cutter I let them drop directly into a large bowl and put them in the refrigerator for cooking later.  

Got a large stock pot going to a hard rolling boil added some olive oil and a little salt.  Dropped the noodles in and stirred them right away.  About 80% were very nice and totally separated, yet 20% were in one big clump.

Any ideas on how to keep them separate?
