Could be a faulty spark plug. That will cause valve chatter. Had it happen to me. The thing started making a chater and like you im like what the hell. So i brought it in expecting a big deal and all he did was change the plugs and it ran great. He said the 3.9 is known to chatter when the plugs go faulty and by faulty i dont mean not fireing just intermitent or a small spark.

Good luck
