Ticking as the Engine Runs.

Sounds like pinging/knocking, phideo. What grade of gas are you using? Too low, and that can cause it. In about 10 seconds, four other guys will jump in here and tell you to get a fuel processor. Not an altogether bad idea, but it seems like some model year Nomads don't like that as much.
