hahahahahahaha.

Can you be a little more specific, do you have any idea as to where it might possibly be coming from e.g. top of engine, alternator etc.

Some ticking noise isnt uncommon, mine ticks, but its just the injectors.

Is it a tick or a tap?

It can be one of a few things.
Is it under the rocker cover or next to it?
