I think you need to take it in to a shop that can run a diagnostics to see what the code is and let you know what it is and how to go about getting it fixed. and I dont think you should drive it like that

well it onlly does da rattling once everytime i turn it on ...i also forgot to mension that i pumped gas that had 10% ethanol in 93 octane,wich i had never put in my tank.....i had a friend that had a z28 that had the same problem due to cheap regular 87 octane gas then a week later after jus pumpin premium the problem went away...
98 ta ram air, a4,transgo stage 2 shift kit, 342 gears ,2 1/2' magnaflow exhaust(or cut off),obx lt headers, custom y pipe,volant cool air intake,port/polished throttle body and maf too, and tune...more on its way

sounds like it could be a water problem.... try holding the pedal to the floor, and then hitting the starter for a bit, the car wont start, but it will let the valves open and close to relieve the cylinders of any excess fluids. let us know what you find
