That just a guide to the change interval, if it rattles and it's the chain get it changed before it fails

You will never get rid of the rattle even with a new chain, its just how they are. Id start by giving it an oil change with some decent quality oil

New plugs won't do a thing, replace the chain if you want it quiet.

Best thing to do is change the chain and do an oil filter/oil change and put in some thicker oil. This will help somewhat
