I heard a rattling sound coming from my engine when I accelerate, the harder the accelarate, the heavier the rattle. Just wondering if I should call the mechanics. 2000 SC2 manual

It could be a number of things including a bad bearing or simply a bad load of gas causing ignition knock. It would be prudent to have your mechanic look at it, but you might try filling it up with some premium gas (91/93 octane) and see if that makes it better. If it does, then you've still got a bad knock sensor or your ignition timing is a bit too far advanced.
Good luck.
Cheers,
