That's pretty vague but I assume it's a motor issue you're referring to. What motor is in the truck, has it had any engine or exhaust mods? When does it tick? When it's idling, when you're accelerating, right when you shut it off? Post some more detailed info so we can better help you.

It's a 5.4 has the noise from idle to about 1500 rpms. I think it's just the injectors but at same time there pretty loud imo. It is bone stock

My 5.4 had alittle motor tick and I added some Prestone oil additive and it went away . I've tryed a lot of difference things over the Years and this was the first thing that's worked for me

A product called SeaFoam has worked very well for me over the years. I use it in the oil as well as the gas tank. Both will address the ticking if (a) it's a lifter or (b) it's an injector or other gas system components.
