Default Anyone with odd ticking....

for the last 6 months i have adjusted my valves 3 times trying to solve this ticking under my hood, i eventually gave up on that i idea and learned to deal with it, being told that the GSR injectors are loud...well anyway i recently recieved 2 MILs that indicated fuel injectors and fuel supply system, and becuase my car has 120k miles on it i figured i could use a new fuel filter...well needless to say the old one was clogged to hell and after i put the new one in, absolutely no more ticking at all...the injectors shut up....just writing this out of relief and an idea for anyone with a similar problem

I am a maint. freak, did my fuel filter at 60,000 and will do again soon. JUst be careful with that gasoline, Have a fire extinguisher handy, just in case. Super easy to do a fuel filter

hey which filter are you refering to? the 1 in the tank? i have some ticking in my ls on the intake side which most think are my valves. just kicked over 70k on the car & 40k on the motor. changed the filter under the hood last summer.

my valves tick too, it started to tick at 8000 miles, now i am at 19000. make sure you get someone that knows what they are doing to readjust your valves. also check your timing, it might be off.
