2000 s 10 clicking when acceloration?

[chevyguy2000]

When i press the gas their is a clicking sound that seems like it is coming from the passenger side of the truck. It only happens when i press the gas if i let off it goes away i dont really know where to start to loot for it since i am new to the s 10's any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Look for signs of a cracked exhaust manifold or loose spark plug.

ok i will take a look at it thanks for the suggestion. i was reading other forums and i was thinking it might be the #3 spark plug so i will check them both

is this a 2 or 4 wheel drive and is it multiport fuel injecton? if multiport it can be an injector or push rod an injector can make a ticking sound.

Its quite possible its either a u-joint or maybe the rear end. If you are coasting and then accelerate, do you hear it?
