SOHC replaced timing chain...still startup rattle

[ljbrown184]

Alright, so I just finished replacing my timing chain, tensioner, guide..ect, and I still have that dirty rattle, only now it lasts a lot longer than before. I have check the tech articles and read that it could be because I have low oil pressure at startup...but what would cause this? And if that isn't the problem, could it be the water pump? Or what the hell else could it be?

BTW, I am also looking for a transmission for a 1990 SOHC, if anyone has one, please let me know and yes I will and have been looking at the classifieds...

Thanks

how did your oil pump look when you took it out, that was the peice oposite of the distributor, and it could be valve tap which comes from the top of the motor not the front so listen good
