A guy on Rennlist mentioned he heard some rattling from the engine when he was experiencing an IMS failure,his was a 3.4L. Said it sounded like a quarter loose in the engine,did yours sound this way?

not really sure how a loose quarter would sound well to me it sounded more like i'd guess a loose timing chain would sound, but yes maybe a loose quarter could sound like this
