I just purchased 2004 with 15k miles on it. I has sat for the last 2-3 years. I have been running 91 and seafoam and just changed the oil, 10w40 amsoil syn. I have a metallic tick when the rpm is below 2k, not constant. Does not sound like lifters to me. Could I be hearing the fuel injectors?
Very new to the 1800. Power response is good with no hesitation in the throttle at all.

Re: Slight pinging/tick below 2K RPM
It might be better to move this to the 1800 Info and Questions. Most of the questions and answers here relate to 1500s. I know that I, for one, rarely visit the other models' areas, otherwise I would be blind from reading all of the messages.
