I purchased a 04 explorer about a month ago. It ran fine and started up with no issues after it's been sitting for 5 or 6 years. 5 or 6 hours later the timing cassettes broke both front and rear. We pulled the engine replaced the parts and started up. It still has a rattle noise although the engine runs with no issues minus the rattle. We took the valve covers off and the passenger and driver sides, 4 out of 6 roller followers are extremely loose. Does anyone know how to fix this (not bent valves I know this much) other than that I don't know what I can do or have to do to fix this I'm looking for helpful answers only thank you
