Ok someone please help me I'm at a loss here. Pretty much every time I start my car it makes a rattling noise, also when I get up to about 3000rpm it makes the same noise until I shift or left off the gas and let the R's go down a bit. Anyone else have or had this problem and know what it might be? I pulled the valve cover to see if my valves are adjustable...they are not. I have the 1.8L 7AFE motor. Please anything would be appreciated. I have to get this motor to last at leaset until tax time so I can get my 3SGTE...

7a's valve adjustment is with shims on the underside of the lifters. there a pain and really dont have to deal with them unless your rebuilding. i know on mine the injectors are really loud. do you have a stethoscope? if so start the end and listen around with it at the fuel rail, valve cover, block. the reason i replaced mine 2 years ago was rod knock. keep an eye on it and how it drives.
