[s-cars] rattling during deacceleration

[Jerry Scott]

I had something similar with noise under acceleration, and found it to be 
the exhaust pipe grounding out on the crossmember that goes under the two 
pipes at about mid-car.  To fix it I had to take the pipes loose at the 
downpipe three bolt flanges and readjust the pipes upward. You may have to 
cut the bolts and replace them.  Also had to adjust the pipe hangers in from 
of the cats.
