  • Hearing a tick

    Seeing as my parents wont even let me change my own oil. I dont get that ither. I took it to a local shop to get that done and seeing as my parents were paying i went and got my engine flushed and all that good stuff. Well i was sitting at a drive thru and i started to hear a ticking noise. Only noticable on driver side. Dunno what it is. Could it be a lose spark plug? Any suggestions will be helpful.

    Does it get faster when you give it more gas? Sounds like lifters....

      yea it gets faster but there is no performance loss at all. and if it is lifters anyway i can fix that without replacing them?

        It sounds like your injectors (fuel injectors) Noise fuel injectors is not uncommon and make that ticking sound, I wouldn't worry about it if the car runs fine, oil pressure is fine, but you hear that ticking. Unless it is excesively loud, then it could be lifeters and I'd have that checked
