i have a 2002 with a 4.0 and an unexplained "rattle" in the motor. what i have done, thinking it was the idler or tensioner is replace both, no luck. then i removed the serpentine belt to eliminate all external bearing sources. still had the rattle. the rattle doesnt sound like a rocker that ive heard before because the rattle is not constant, very intermittent. really sounds like a loose piece of sheetmetal bouncing around inside the engine.
