Just for the purposes of informing those who may need it.. a ticking sound coming from the 3vze can be the injectors, valve clearances(shims and such), exhaust leaks (from both manifold and gasket).. but I had the same annoying tick that was prevalent at all RPM's and increased/decreased with throttle. Turns out it was a crossthreaded spark plug to the 6th cylinder! Just an idea if somebody still needs it.. check your PLUGS!
