The springs are getting weak in it and they aren't controlling the valve and the ticking is the valve hammering the seat.....he should get a new one on order. THey can run a long time after ticking but it's a crap shoot.....

I asked the same question almost 10 years ago when I bought mine. A trusted online member told me sometimes they tick, sometimes they don't. Haven't touched it and still no problems 160k later.

If he's going to keep the truck stock then a stock LP will do and you can get one from Geno's garage or go to Cummins. If you aren't going to keep it stock then I would upgrade to a FASS and call Kenny at Ken's Performance to get you all set up. It will make fuel filter changes much easier as well.

im not going balls out like i did with my old truck. i just want a mild runner that is reliable. im not shooting for big power just 300-350 smokeless horsepower. i dont think im going to bother getting a airdog etc.. i think a stock replacement will suit me fine.
