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

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.

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.

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
