Hey guys, my ute has developed a ticking noise under acceleration. It kinda sounds like when you put a zip tie or the like on the spokes of a pushy when you were a youngin. The higher the revs get up the faster it ticks but only does it when im accelerating. Any ideas?
Thanks Luke

hrmmm would this be the most likely cause on a V8 as well? I have a ticking that seems to be getting worse.. I can only hope its just a loose bolt / dead gasket!
