Rattle from under hood - passenger side
I have a 1994 F150 XL 5.0 V8 and i have a rattle on the passenger side under the hood (or this general area). Only happens when going over rough road. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Jim

Check your flat tire tools and maybe tighten the wing nut. Make sure your hood is closing all the way. If not, adjust the rubber stops. Go around engine bay a try to move things that shouldn't move. If you don't find anything then report back. Welcome Sandy

I believe it is the heat sheild. It is loose and rests in the frame. Rattles going over bumps. Thanks.
