First let me say, this is great forum guys. Lot's of good info on here.
My rig: 94 XJ, 5 speed, with the I6. Abt 160K miles.
My problem: At low RPMs, no matter what gear I'm in, when my come up to a small hill and hit the gas to maintain speed, there is a rattling coming from the engine compartment. I think the key is when I'm in low RPMs and the engine is under a load, i.e. more gas equals louder rattling. If I down shift to raise the RPMs, the rattling is still there, but not as loud.
Fixes I've tried: New water pump, plugs and wires, fuel injector cleaner, fuel filter, Shell 93 octane gas, airfilter and cleaned the intake.
I don't see a knock sensor, so that rules that out. Timing is controlled by the computer so I can't really mess with that, that I know of.
Someone suggested the cat might be busted, but the sound is coming from the engine.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
