    its hard to here free revving because the sound of my exhaust almost covers the sound of the ticking. first thing i thought to was an exhaust leak but when i opened my hood it didnt sound like it was coming from the exhaust side... but it was really hard to tell over the sound of the engine...

    cant you hear rod knock during idle? or even at higher rpms when cruising? i can ONLY hear it when im accelerating. and yeah the burnout was only a few seconds... the motor was at full operating temperature

    redlined for a little to long i guess

    i was releasing some steam with a nice smoky burnout and i sat on my rev limiter for a few seconds (like 3 seconds serisousl) and now the motor ticks:3d_frown: i can only hear it when i have the throttle open.... like when im accelerating. when its idling, cruising, or decelerating at any rpms...

    Ran fine but now it wont start....

    i thought about the gas gauge not working but it has always worked and is higher now than it was a few days ago so i doubt it. plus it didnt act like it was running out of fuel on the way this morning. i will hotwire the fp and see what that does. thanks
