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.

Ya it's been making this noise for awhile. It started shortly after my ex was maxing out the motor in a parking lot....and he said the oil light was on the whole time... -_- ... So I know something is bent or something like that... |
