Idle Rattle
My 99 Z has a rattling problem at idle. It sounds like its coming from behind the power steering pump (fluid level is good) and the exhaust manifold (all bolts are torqued to spec)...kind of has the sound of a loose bearing...hopefully not that of the cam or block. She runs as strong as always, but the rattle seems to be progressing, but only at idle...any thoughts?

might be a loose rocker arm, or maybe a lifter that is about to ****. I would take off the valve cover and check the rocker arms, I had the same problem, my lifter broke in half and tore up my cam Dont drive it around too long like that until you figure out what it is!
