sounds like lifter rattle.

Post by chevman-67 »

sounds like I have a lifter rattle when engine is cold.Is it just me or does anyone else have this problem?when it warms up it seems to be fine.Also have to check my heat shield as when under hard ecceleration from a dead stop I have a bad rattle on passengers side front that travels right through the door and floor area.any ideas would be great but lifter rattle is my big issue.
Just to many cars and trucks!(1991 chev 4x4)(2001 ford mustang)(1967 chev shortbox stepside)(2003 pontiac vibe)(1990 chev 1/2 ton)(+ others,where does it end?) GM's always my favorite.
