1990 Galant GSX
I'm not much into the workings of cars so I'm gonna ask you all.
My Galant makes the most hideously loud noise (like a rattling sound) from the moment I start it until it hits exactly 2000 RPMs. Once it hits 2000 RPMs the noise disappears. I was told it could be the exhaust so I took it to the muffler shop and they told me it was the engine. When I took it to the engine guy, he told me it was the exhaust. I had a family friend look at it and he said that it was my timing tensioner (I have no idea what those are) going bad. The car has 150k miles on it and I've replaced the transmission and timing belt within the last 60k miles.
Any thoughts what it could be? I'd hate to have someone replace something and only find out it wasn't the problem.
