My car, a 94 GT, makes this noise at part throttle that sounds like a pinging/metalic rattling noise. I recently discovered that my BBk x-pipe to air tube hose was leaking, b/c BBk gives you a rubber hose that melted, so I cut down some of the tube an replaced with "heavier" duty rubber hose.
I then noticed, by using a length of hose held up to my ear, that my EGR to header tube was leaking, so I used some Loc-Tite on the threads. However, both still leak. I was wondering, would these to problems make a pinging/metalic rattle sound and barely any or part throttle??? Even if I push the gas down 1/32 of an inch while driving the sound is made, or if it's at quarter or half throttle. I do not notive the noise at idle(in the garage), or in park or neutral, only while driving down the road...Any idea's..????
