It's either ignition, vacuum, or fuel.

Does it rattle at high rpm?

It’s worse at low rpm. Just started. Was fine on way to auto parts store. I replaced batt myself in parking lot. I noticed it immediately after. Like night and day. Don’t know what happened.   Old batt was interstate 800cca/1000ca agm. New is wet interstate with same specs. $100 cheaper. Didn’t need the premium agm. Thanks for responding.

Never mind. Plug wire came loose and melted against header on driver side. Replacing plug wires. All good now.
