So i've been having this problem for a while now, and at first i was about to cry when i thought it was rod knock, which it could be, but i hope not. When i start my car clutch in, all is well. No noise. Then, as soon as i release the clutch there is a reaaaaally annoying ticking noise from under the hood. When i go to see where it is coming from it sounds like it is coming from in between the intake manifold and the head. The noise goes away instantly when i put the car in gear. It seems to only be present in neutral.. Rod knock should be constant right? And the weirdest part is that it does change speeds with throttle%. im bringin the car into my school shop next week to try and take shit apart but any ideas on what this is?
