I have this tick coming from what I am almost certain is a fuel injector. How loud should injectors be? I am pretty darn sure that this is not a lifter/rocker tick. I am about 1/2 way through a tank with techron fuel injector cleaner. Any thoughts? Is this something I should be worried about, or not likely to be a big issue? My idle has a bit of an erratic burble to it, could these be related? I am not setting any codes, and mileage/emmissions aer all normal.
Bob,
All injectors make some ticking noise..my cars have too..never had no problems..if only one seems alot louder then others there may be something to check into but I wouldnt worry too much about injector ticking since its normal.
I usually put my finger on each injector and feel for the ticking as it fires the fuel.
Some feel to tick louder then others for some reason.
Never paid no mind to it.
