SOMETIMES THE DARN SOUNDS WILL HAVE YOU THINKING ITS ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING UNDER THE HOOD!
TAKE A 3-4 FOOT LONG PIECE OF 1/2"-3/4" HEATER OR GARDEN HOSE......SHOVE ONE END IN YOUR EAR....USE THE OTHER LIKE A STETHOSCOPE
WATCH OUT FOR THOSE PESKY MOVING ENGINE PARTS!!!!!
I'M SORTA BETTING IT'S YOUR THROTTLE BODY (BUT I'M NOT THERE).....THE GASKET OR BUTTERFLY MAYBE DOING THE KAZOO THING
IF YOU FIND THE RACKET TO BE EMITTING FROM THE THROTTLE BODYUSING "THROTTLE BODY CLEANER" SPRAY THE INSIDE AND THE BUTTERFLY WELL.....EVEN ACTUATE THE THROTTLE SO THAT THE BUTTERFLY OPENS UP AND YOU CAN GET TO/ SPRAY THE UNEXPOSED SIDE
WHILE YOU ARE AT IT!
YOU MIGHT REMOVE THE IAC AND CLEAN IT TOO.......HERE'S A LINK BELOW RELATED TO IT....I MADE SOME PICS!!!.....THIS IS EZ!

BE SURE THAT THOSE COULD HAVE BEEN THE PROBLEM USING THE CRUDE BUT SIMPLE CJ MEDEVAC-0-MATIC STETHOSCOPE
IF IT IS NOT, USE IT TO CONTINUE YOUR SEARCH FOR THE RACKET....BE AWARE OF MOVING PARTS!
KEEP US POSTED ON PROGRESS!
