I feel rumbling rattling vibrating in the engine when I use the gas pedal especially when I accelerate. Sounds like a train engine. Comes and goes. When the gas pedal is released during the rattling, it stops vibrating but happens again when I press the gas pedal. The car still runs despite this but it does sounds very annoying and feels abnormal. Any answers?

Thanks.

have the timing checked, along with the knock sensor and ignition system. you may also have a bad tank of fuel.
