Default 2001 Grand Cherokee Rattling noise from under the hood

I have a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, straight 6 auto trans, everything stock, 164,000 miles. There is a loud metallic rattling sound coming from somewhere under the hood only when I press on the gas and accelerate. This happens at any speed or RPM. The noise stops immediately when I remove my foot off the gas pedal. No issues with performance or warning lights. Can anyone help? Any ideas?

Turn it on, pop the hood, use your finger to push down on the throttle control and find out where its coming from. Hopefully its not inside your engine.
