BUmp help me out ppl i'm just gonna see re adjust the valves and see if thats the problem

 

bump

 

Adjust the valves. My old jdm dohc zc was notorious for ticking valves. Even when they were properly adjusted the ticking was there albeit not as loud. Also OBD0 injectors are known to be loud as well. I know my b16a injectors are pretty loud under operation.

 

its wierd though it only ticks when i;m reving it or driving it

 

Could it be coming from the dizzy? My dizzy started making skraping and ticking noises before it went out.

Ok i misread you original post. So it only does it while driving? Is it a ticking, scraping, squeeling?

 

Could also be arcing plug wires/coil.

 

sounds like a lifter, adjust the valves. and if they does not fix it then we can move further. until you try and fix that, that is going to be the main response you get.

GOOD LUCK

 

alright thanks for all your help guys i'll do that

sound slike like a ticking sound when i rev it gets louder

Definately check your lifters (valve lash) first, then move on from there

 

i found out the problem nothign do with the engine it was the header i installed the y pipe gasket wasn;t tightened enough so the valves were echo'ing off the engine

 

that was pathetic
