Re: Help: Engine Rattle

If it still runs, the timing chain is probably OK.

You could start the engine with the valve cover off
and listen; maybe that will help locate it.


But most likely you need to pull the oil pan.
Get a couple of cans of Gunk Engine-Brite and a
power washer and clean your engines "nether regions"
and the front cross-member.
It will make the job much less unpleasant.
