GA15 rattling problem

[ashtech]

hey guys

I jus changed my head and block, but i realized there is some gum in the engine. when i start, it idles fine, after a min or so, the oil light comes on and i hear a rattling noise where the chain is to the front.

Any idea, i trying not to take down the engine again. is it possible that the oil pump is clogged?

your warranty up? carry that engine back to where you bought it, these engines too cheap and crappy to go thru any stress. chances are that damage has already been done

there is a tensioner thats on the chain, if ur warranty period is up, u cud try chagning that first. but if ur oil light is on....that cud be another problem.
