Nothing will really fix its, its just the injectors opening and closing, it shouldn't be that loud. The new ones i put in were quieter but still made noise. Its either that or your lifters :eek:

that ticking sound is most likely just tappits on ur valves, normal thing. um best u check ur tank for a hole, check ur fuel lines, may have a pin hole in them from a stone or sumthing. yea um just check ya spark plugs, change ya filters and stuff like that.
