Rattles are usually just loose heat shields. They sometimes make different noises at different RPMs.

Do you mean a tuneup? Whats the milage on your car?

I just did an overhaul myself at 150k: New O2 sensor, fuel filter, oil pan gasket, front crank seal, spark plugs, radiator flush, ect. The car runs awesome. The guy that sold it to me for $1000 would be crapping his pants right now if he saw it today!!!

thats basic maintnence jeansguy. Overhaul reffers to cyl. bore correction,rings,lapping valves,valve guide seals,internal engine bearing replacement,things of that nature.
