When on neutral throttle there seems to be a loose sounding rattle from the engine, not loud but noticable. If you reduce the throttle position or increase it, the noise disapears. Any ideas?

I did have a quick look for loose bits but everything seemed ok. It only needs a very small change in throttle position to make it disappear. I'll have a better look tomorrow.
cheers

yes I have a rattle at tickover sometimes. It does disappear when I press the clutch pedal though.
the noise I can hear is when you are driving the car.
