Ticking sound with Video, Help please~!
Hey all,
THis has been bugging me for a while... just never got around to putting it on film. I have this weird ticking sound when i decelerate, when i rev it there is no ticking only when the revs come down. Below is a video of what im talking about. I am curious if this is something minor, or something major like a bent valve or something of that nature. There is no loss in performance at all, and this all started happening (or noticed it happening) after my cut-out install.
Help me out please, any advice/suggestions appreciated.
THanks Jesse

sounds like something is rattling. if its valvetrain dont you think you would hear it on acceleration as well. no different valve events happen on decel unless you have a jake brake

doesnt sound at all like a leak to me. i had a loud exhaust rattle last year, i went through and tighen all the bolts and the rattle was gone. i would tighten all the exhaust bolts and if that doesnt solve it jack the car up and start bangin on stuff until you reproduce the rattle.
