[QUOTE="nomowork, post: 218218, member: 6029"] Is it ticking when cold, hot or both? I had a 1989 Pathfinder with a V6 that I bought used and it always had a ticking noise when cold and it went away when it warmed up. I bought it used and beat the tar out of it before trading it in on a new Toyota pickup. I found out my exhaust manifolds didn't have any gaskets where it mated with the head. Apparently after it heated up the sound went away because the metals expanded and closed up the gap. I made sure the motor was hot when I traded it in. :lol: [/QUOTE]
