Chasing a ticking sound from inside the cab that gets louder when you accelerate.

Figured I’d check the driver side exhaust gasket. Looks like number 5 had a slight leak.

Had a second set of Felpro 1411’s kicking around.
Used copper spray on the gasket and some anti seize on the header bolts.

Got the truck up to temp and retightened the header bolts… hopefully that will resolve the ticking….it’s driving me nuts

Adjusted the secondary air flap on the carb counterclockwise a1/4 turn. Attempting to slow down it’s opening.
