rattle in valvecover??
so basically, when i start my car, it rattles from within the valve cover, and its kind of late and i cant really work on it, so does anyone have any ideas what this could be? it almost sounds like there is something loose just getting knocked around. wtf.?

YEAH NUKKA!!!! u got the car
Hey check to see if its the timing chain. I know most of the guys on here just remove the top timing chain guide. Perhaps that would help (?)
Congrats broseff

take the top guide and the side guide off, the one where the distributor is at. that should stop the noise. youd know if it was your lower guides so im pretty sure you wont have to go through that.

222k. woot. a **** ton for a 95. but anyways, i got the probelm taken care of, after about an hour... (im not a mechanic, im 15.) and i also need a new valve gasket, both the inner and the outer. but yea, like you guys said, the top chain guide was broken off, and rattling. (just happened yesterday, on the drive home) and its runnin fine now. thanks guys.
