Any ideas? 1996 MM Zetec, ATX 192000 kms...not dead, but I'm not fixing it White people love Wayne Brady because he makes Bryant Gumbel look like Malcolm X.

Mine sort of sounded like BBs in a cofee can when they started crumbling. Put a stethescope on the exhaust manifold to see if that's where the sound is coming from. <lost-in-space robot voice>DANGER! Reving the engine with fractured pre-cats could cause a chunk of ceramic to get sucked into the combustion chamber.</lost-in-space robot voice> Scott 95 SE-2.5L ATX (Sold, but not forgotten...)
