  19. My 87 has a tick when its driven and warmed up. Not a constant tick, more of a hit and miss tick. Doesn't do it when it's cold. Thought it was my air conditioner but it's not. that oil is good steped on the clutch still there. Oil pressure is good. Could it be an injector going bad? Thinking if it was a valve, it would be a constant tick. Any ideas? Thanks
