ticking?
There is a ticking noise...seems to be from the drivers side but its so hot under the hood while the motor is running that its hard to pin point the tick. (103* outside temps)
Could it be coming from the injection pump or the valves? |
It's most likely the lift pump, mine comes and goes. I've heard everything from this is normal to this is a sign of the lift pump going out.
|
Yeah I have heard this sound go from very faint to very loud. Then one day it won't do it at all. We drive this truck around 600-750 miles per week so I get to hear alot of noises from her...
|
It might be a hair clip on your 4wd shifter.... lmao. I had that problem. Once.
|
Not enough hair on my head to clip & its 2WD ;)

My 12v does it too & talked to some people that have had it for 150,000 miles.I will soon find out because I am getting away from the mechanical pump all together.It sounds like the injection pump but could not tell for shure.:blahblah1:
|
What's the timing set to? The higher we set timing on the bigger ppumps, the more noise they make.
|
Mine is on 20* but this is a tapping sound that goes & comes.
|
Mine does the same thing....learned just to ignore it.

My timing is stock on this 215 engine/pump.
The ticking has gotten louder over the last few days to the point that I can hear the ticking from over 100 feet away when coming out of a gas station. Also can hear the ticking from in the house when I have it idling in the driveway. What is the best way to locate this ticking/tapping sound? I have layed under the truck while its idling and the noise is pretty loud from underneath the truck. Would anything make a ticking noise from the bottom end of the motor? |
Also I thought I would add that the tick gets faster with engine speed.
|
its most likely your lift pump thats ticking, if its that loud it may be going bad
|
would lifters or tappets make that kind of ticking noise?
|
I read once too see if it's your lift pump push the primer in ~1/2". If the ticking stops it's the lift pump. Dont know if it works, but its worth a try.
|
Mine ticks too... It sounds like an exauhst leak..... Everybody that listens to it say's it sounds like it's commin from the TRANNY

I think if you can hear it 100 feet away, you've graduated from "tick", to "knock". Hope it works out for you... $.02 |
I had this problem. Not that hair clip... It really was a hefty knocking. Had it diagnosed and fixed, thank goodness an easy fix. It was a loose rocker arm under valve cover #3. It had gotten so dang loud I thought engine parts were gonna start flying lol

You could try this. Just take a wrench and loosen one injector line at a time. Listen for the noise to change or go away. That will give you an idea if its a plunger ticking in the injector pump or ........ It scares me that it's that loud. |
I can post video of it ?? if that helps
