Loud ticking noise?
 

Hi all,

Literally changed my spark plugs about 2 hours ago. After starting engine there is now a louder ticking noise than before. Increases and decreases with engine revs. I didn't adjust valve clearance as I don't have the tool and they didn't "seem" to far off the one's I took out. Original were Bosh and the replacement are NGK?

Only other thing i can pick up on is it's a bit more throttle responsive, which is a good thing... right? :p

Thanks :y:

ticking noise?
Id doube check the plugs are all the correct tightness/torque

Ive have a problem where a few plugs havnt been quick tight enough and caused pre-detonation which is a pinking/ticking noise????

Gaps set correctly on new spark plugs?

Spark plugs correctly torqued?

tappets?

Torque could be the issue... I haven't got anything to measure it with :homme: So it was either stick with misfiring on old plugs or swap. So just did them to what "seemed" tight :wacko: Guessing there it no other way of tightening them safely?
