Clicking sound coming from engine
Well starting this morning ive had this weird clicking sound all day, sounds like its coming from the passenger side of the engine. It gets a lot worst when you accelerate, im thinking it might be my headers needing to be re-torqued? But im not sure. Its very annoying.

Well the side the leak sounds like its coming from is..... extremely tight and the AIR tubes are right on top of them, ill check them when I find the right size nut and see if that fixes it. Thanks.

yeah, some of the header bolts were loose as hell. I tightened up as many as I could easily reach. Still making that clicking sound, ill tighten them all tomorrow and see if that fixes it.

Re: Clicking sound coming from engine
if tightening the bolts doesn't help you might need to put a new gasket in. cuz if it's loose and exhaust blows by the gasket it will ruin the gasket.
