    Hey yall,

    Need some help diagnosing this. An audible ticking noise is heard when accelerating, but not at idle. This makes me think its not valve train noise. I dont see any exhaust leaks either. Any ideas?

    without spending to much time researching this it sounds like a emmisions valve clicking. Maybe a VSV (vacuum switching valve) for the charcoal canister purge or?
