Not sure if this will solve the 4Lo problem, but will help with the rattle.

Find my XJ Thread, I posted pictures of tearing down a NP231.
After seeing the internals I'd have to guess that you got a slipped fork.

Mine used to rattle at take off...but it hasn't happened in a while. I know what you mean about pushing it forward...I duct taped mine for a while!
