ok ever since I got my tuner and cross over bar put in I have this clicking noise on light acceleration once I get on the gas either the exhaust is so loud it covers it up or it goes away not sure which. I don't think it is something lose since it happens on even intervals and isn't a random rattle. It is like an airy rattle like a transfer truck using it's engine break. Any one have an idea?

[00stang]

did you get a tuned chip for it because the computer could not be matching the timing of wut ever u have done to it but in a general idea that is my shot at it hope that helps

[GreenFaleen]

no I got the x-cal 2 also I am using my 87 tune and thats what I am running.

[00stang]

well maybe it is something loose have you opened the hood during idol to try to find it

does it sound like sucking air almost faleen? on acceleration only or uphill?

[GreenFaleen]

it isn't at idle at all. and it is anytime I accelerate but just at the begining of the acceleration.

u got after market injectors? im wondering if its fuel system related and i beleive your exhaust is probably drowning it out so its probably when ever your on the throttle man.

[Juggalo_X]

Im not a professional faleen but i do have some knowledge and since its on acceleration i think you make have a ping from a tune that is a tiny bit off

check all of these components since your experiencing a ping any of these can cause a ping on acceleration. Refer to the link bro you'll have to copy and paste it the forum screws the link up.

no stock injectors. The reason I don't think it is all the time if because if I floor it from a stop I don't hear it even when the exhaust isn't that loud. I thought at first it was my intake rattling against the side of the fender well hole but is sounds to even for that.

read up man ^^

yeah I am going to put mid grade in and change to my mid grade tune see if that fixes anything

good idea might rectify the issue and if thats the case then they owe you an 87 tune that is proper

[GreenFaleen]

glad to hear hope its just a crummy tune and not a component on your ride dude

[GreenFaleen]

I did everything and I think it is my throttle cable rattleing against something mainly because the more rpm I give the louder the rattle and if I angle the pedal different it doesn't do it any ideas?

Don't think it would be your throttle cable since it would tighten up as you press on the accelerator. This is something that hasn't been mentioned, but is worth a try, and that is to check for exhaust leaks. Best bet is to have someone in your car, as your under the hood when it's on, and lightly apply pressure to the gas pedal, and see what happens. If you can hear it under the hood, then you know chances are it isn't an exhaust leak, if you can hear it under the hood, try to find it.

[GreenFaleen]

well I can hear it under the hood I had my dad help me. I'm still confused it only happens every once in awhile now I thinking it my just be my intake everything is tight but it only happens when I hear the TB open and start taking air.
