Slight rattle at cold start seems to be valve lifters... there's been a couple threads floating around here on that; just search titles for "rattle" and "startup" and you should find it.

Seafoam is like an uber-detergent you use to flush your whole system of excess (carbon? I believe?) and other buildups the normal detergents in oils and fluids don't remove. It's pretty useful stuff apparently; you can get it at any auto parts store. I haven't tried it yet but there's a really good thread on that too... again, search for "seafoam" and you should find it.

(Sorry I'm not linking for you, I'm just being lazy right now.)

That was fun. Who wants to do it again?
