I have a 1999 Chevy Express Van 5.7L engine and it makes a loud rattling noise while in drive only. What's the problem with my van??

    Hi Angela Dufault, I want to help you with your question, but I need more information from you. Can you please add details in the comment box? Are You Hearing This Noise When You Put It In Drive And Not Moving Yet, Or After you Start Moving- With Foot Off Brake?

SOURCE: 1999 Chevy Express Van Side Door will not open

You need to replace the handle itself. The inside of the handle where the metal cable fitting attaches causes too much strain on the plastic and the molded groove breaks. Ford has the same problem. I don't know why these car man. dont just go back to all metal exterior handles. If you have time you can probably fix it with epoxy and washers, but the fastest way is to get one aftermarket or from a junkyard. Hope this answers your question.
Please remember to rate this fix.

Just to add to the previous post. The blower motor resistor is under the hood on the passenger side behind the battery.

Start with fuel system. Listen for fuel pump humm at fuel tank No humm check wiring to pump for power. Then check for spark at plugs and wires. Remove wire from coil and hold near engine and see arch when you crank. No arch. Replace ignition Modular inside distributor cap or cap or rotor

1999 chevy 1500 express van, trys to start but stops, the fuel pump is new, i think it is electrical.

Has your Check Engine or Service Engine Soon light come on? If so, there is a code stored in your van's onboard computer. Have that code read and interpreted at any large auto parts store, and either arrange to have the problem repaired or repost with the code number. If no code is present, we have a whole new ball game.

You are doomed.That rattle you are hearing are your bearings that have spun,because of oil starvation.The engine is damaged and is not safe to drive because it could throw a connecting rod thru the engine block which will throw oil on the pavement causing you to skid out of control.This will be costly to fix! A engine rebuild or engine replacement will have to be done.
