@Xcapitantravis There is a possibility your primary chain tensioners, or chain are bad.

Alright thanks. I found the cam timing chain on his website. I also bought my tensioner from him a while back ago.
Now is it possible that my chain could appear and feel to be tight when the engne is off but when everything is back together and the engine is on, the chain is hitting something? I mean my car sounds exactly like yours.. I replaced the tensioner and no luck.. like i said I fixed the timing also.. So i think the next step is to buy a whole new chain incase it stretched

@Xcapitantravis I bought the tensioners and chain on Ebay from CHRISTOPHER'S FOREIGN CAR PARTS.
Search this item number, 350108168701
He gets $60 for a chain with master link.

was this a rattle that got worse when u accelerated? thats the problem im having. a sparatic noise kind of sounds like a soda can vibrating in the engine from the cabin and it gets worse when i accelerate.

@lilfrknmnstr Yes. Get a short piece of hose and rest it on the front of the valve cover and see if thats where the most of the rattle is coming from while the motor idles.
The longer you put off looking at the chain the more it will eat into the engine block. Mine had just started to eat the aluminum right where the valve cover sits on the block.

@valadezjose47 Yep, the wifes did the same thing for over a year. Then the rattle got real bad and thats when I decided to look at the tensioners. Glad I did, before the chain eat into the block any more. I have pics on the link in my description.

@ncmach1 i finally got it fixed it was a misfire and now the car is drtiving great ill be honest it was a bitch to fix every thing wrong the car had
valadezjose47 1 month ago
@valadezjose47 Yes it is a bitch to work on. Especially removing all the junk just so you can get the valve covers off! I will be glad when the wife can buy a Taurus or something else.
