valve ticking??

TCB247 · January 9th, 2012, 03:57 PM

Okay I have done some research and apparently this ticking is common in the 4vs. My question is this a easy fix like the head cooling mod or am I going to need a need set of heads??

Well, how loud is the ticking? And are you sure it's not the injectors? The 4V tick and can sound helluva similar to injector pulses/ticking.

Like Lefty said, these things tend to be loud anyway. If it is the head tick, the head cooling mod won't help at this point, the damage is done.

True dat, mine has the cooling mod and my valve drives me crazy, luckily my JBA Intake drowns it out as it engulfs the entire neighborhoods air supply lol
