The car runs perfect. I dont know its just like a clicking sound coming from the intake manfold could it be my injectors or something? It runs really well only has 60k miles on it used mobile 1 from the start pretty much.

Re: Knocking sound.
Well the lifters on these cars are self adjusting lifters, they are what go in-between your cam and valve. They do tick very often on 1g and sometimes on 2gs, It also could be a noisy injector. One sure way to tell is get a hard oak dowel about half an inch in diameter and 2-3 feet long this can be a mechanics best friend. What you do is place it on your engine on what ever part you think is ticking and you can hear exactly what’s going on.

Re: Knocking sound.
it u got the good old 4g63 yes it is just in the lifter actually the lash adjuster which is in the lifter and rides on the cam and they can tick like that and is very common and they will all do it at some point mine does it all the time and yet i know it sucks and sounds bad but it is something you will just have to live with unless u want to do all the work of doing the head and all new parts cams lifters valves ya know spend the big bucks
