luminator94 Posted September 13, 2002 Report Share Posted September 13, 2002 Probly the lifters, the 3.1's have always done this. And you said you were gonna change the Bosch plugs. I have the same ones you describe in my 94 Lumina Euro and haven't had one problem with them. I actually gained about 3 more miles to the gallon with them.

NeverSayDie Posted September 13, 2002 Report Share Posted September 13, 2002 My lifters have always rattled like that too. I have also used those plugs with no problems, but everyone else says they're crap. All I know is they've lasted like 30,000 miles, and don't even show any wear!
