What you're describing does still sound like an exhaust leak.
Have you tried having someone sit in the car and gradually give it gas while you check around the engine bay?
No havent had the chance to yet, in school all day, i get home its dark and i park in street only chance i could get a real look is on the weekends.
I did just get back from school now and the ride back i listened and theres definately no ticking sound in the engine.
The last time i had a problem like this i tried having someone rev while i listen and it was hard for me to find out where its coming from. Its a bit louder now so im guessing its going ot be even harder to try now but ill give it a shot once my pops gets home. BTW thanks for quick replies so far :icon_surp , other ideas?
