Evening guys,got a question. Just purchased a 96 ranger 5 speed with 2.3. 195,000 runs and drives fine. Has a valve clatter under load and after warms up. But also if in normal strain driving but it has gotten worse since replace coolant temp sensor. Had a starting issue but sensor fixed it yesterday. But rattle more noticable now and when rattle happens the oil pressure gauge and temp gauge flicker. But ease off gas the flicker goes away. I'm lost. The previous owner just replaced head gasket. It runs fine and power seems good ? I'm just at a loss right now. Any help or input is helpful.
