I have a rattle that is barely noticable coming from the airfilter(box.) If, however, I take off the airfilter assembly, and I'm looking at the throttle butterfly w/engine running the rattling is very much louder, what might it be?

Take if off and see if something is broken off inside. Its fairly simple to remove the stock airbox/intake.*MATT* <p>98 Camaro SS #1767 A4<br />Artic White<br />Not stock...<p>Former car:<br />96 Firebird Y87 A4<br />Bright Red<br />Wasn\'t stock...

Thanx, I'd mostly given up... I've removed the MAF screen, and with the intake pipe totally removed and the engine idleing, there is the sound like a couple of marbles bouncing around in the throttle body.1997 Camaro RS<br />White w/T-tops

It might just be the sound of air being sucked into the throttle body. Mine just sounds like the "Forced Air" ram air kit on Corvettes.
