Re: my head is making a clicking sound (teamvirus)
adjust the valves its not hard.
i just adjusted mine, it helped but i need to do it again. usually takes me about 3 to 4 tries to get em the way i want. (little to no tick)
it could also be the injectors.
one way to find out is star the motor, sit your *** on top of you valve cover and put your ear right next to the injectors and valve cover.

Sounds like a valve tick. No biggie, do a valve adjustment and you'll be fine.
(we hope).
If not you have a lot bigger problems

Re: my head is making a clicking sound (forthewin)
thanks so much for the info.
by the way the motor is a b16a2
and it might be the injectors cause im running a greddy turbo kit on stock injectors with a jackson fmu not the blue boxs

what are you bumping for? let the car sit overnight and do a valve adjustment the next day. if the noise isnt there after everything is within spec then its not the injectors
