In my experience this is not the cam chain, but a piston pin (small end)
wearing out. I have seen many maxes with this problem (30+) which have been
into my garage for repair, including my own. Mostly right side.
Anyway, check the rods. Fairly simple to do.

Patrick -- what is the procedure for checking for worn piston pins (small
end)? Shorting each plug in turn and listening for a reduction in the
rattling noise?  Or something else.  Do you need a stethascope (like medical
folks use) to amplify the sound or is it easy to detect?

Thanks ,  Bill
