Question.

first tech question

but alright before i got my exhaust when i floored it you could here like a ticking kinda thing, now that i have my exhaust i don't hear it anymore, but i know it's still there.

i've heard that the gt's have noisy injectors, and that injectors usually are the ticking noise.
is there anything i can do to help this at WOT? thats the only time it does it, would a tuner/cai help?
would a different grade of fuel help?
or will they just tick no matter what?

I have heard about this before.I don't think there is much one can do.Mine does'nt have that problem,just seems hit and miss.Maybe the sucking air noise of a cai/tune might cover it tho

Have you ever changed your fuel filter?just a longshot thought..

tsp_2177 · April 19th, 2008, 02:26 PM

nope haven't thought about that, but my car only has 20k and i tend to only fill up before or WAY after the gas station that i always use, so hopefully its not clogged.

GreenFaleen · April 19th, 2008, 02:30 PM

is it a constant tick or just once every little while

tsp_2177 · April 19th, 2008, 02:35 PM

i'm trying to remember. it's pretty consistant at WOT. like maybe on just one cyl. but other than WOT i haven't heard it
and i think it only mainly happens when i have just filled up maybe?

i'll try and see if i can hear it tonight

At 20k i sure would change the filter for general maintenance(it's easy).I have let my tank get low many times because i am picky about gas,lol,and will change mine every 5k or so.

tsp_2177 · April 19th, 2008, 02:40 PM

maybe not i dunno lol
if it was right after fill up it would prolly have something to do with the computer trying to figure out the octane right?
i've got like a 1/4 tank of gas right now i'll try and see if it does it later.
if so that would prolly just be noisy injectors? hopefully

are you sure it just wasn't an exhaust leak.

tsp_2177 · April 19th, 2008, 04:22 PM

it was before i put my exhaust on, as well as now.
hmm, it's not real common to only hear them at wot is it?
