if you do take the valve out, be ready for knackered low-end performance. The valve shouldnt really rattle, however in my experience it can be that the flap has some play in it, you can try shimming it with some washers (copper washers and some high temperature grease), though it can also happen if the cover has not been put back on correctly (happens sometimes if the bolts sheared).
