D16 tick? wtf is it?

[acecivic101]

ok i hear a tick.. i have pin pointed it to near the runner on the intake manifold adjacent to cylinder 1... valve?

it can be your valves or your injectors.

certain about this? as long as it isnt anything potentially deadly to my engine ill be happy.. i only have 80k

Well from my own experience. Yes. Ive had ticking noise before as well. Adjusted my valves and found some newer injectors for cheap and ticking went away. And no, it wont do much damage at all but it wont run as efficient.

Hopefully other members can give you some of their own inputs.

Edit: I stated in the first post the noise was near the fourth runner.. its actually the runner adjacent to cylinder 1

Sometimes it can just be that one valve or that one injector hahaha. It happens man haha.

First time I did my valve adjustment. all valves specs were different >_<

valves? octane? valve ping? no way.

anyways, check valve adjustment like everyone else said. its a east check and you dont risk messing anything up judt checking it. other than that honda injectors are noisy.

Idk but i've never heard my injectors, all I hear is the rest of the motor running (mainly the exhaust)..

Sorry OP, I have no clue.. GL
