    after messing with the car for a bit and taking it for a quick drive after fixing the fuel line i realized the rattling noise i heard sound to be coming from the blower. I thought it was a tranny noise for sure because it only does it in drive sitting still, but i put the ebrake on and listened, its right in the middle if the motor. Anyone had this symptom before? I'v looked on iatn and there does not seem to be anything about it. Other than that one issue the car is totally sound, the only leak i have is of course from the pan lol, i thnk this is my millionth pan 3800 gasket replacement between my cars and customer cars. I'm going to pull the blower belt tomarrow and see if it goes away to single it out.

    I'v heard of that and yes thats what it sounds like, but it only does it in drive. I think it may be because the r's are lower and thats where they need to be to hear the noise, but iv never had the problem myself, o I'll make sure tomorrow. That would be nice though, not bad for a 300 dollar car.
