Default Ticking..Unplug #8 coilpack and ticking stops?
As title says.. I even switched #8 coilpack with #2 to rule out bad coil pack. It ticks then unplugging the coilpack at the wiring harness on #8 stops the tick? Replaced wires and switched around plugs. About 350 miles on this motor with no spray yet.

to check the injectors just switch out the #8 and see if the noise moves. I doubt that's the problem, though.
