All injectors tick, that means they're working.

Did you even confirm that was the issue after you had the motor all put back together? Mine does this exact same thing. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/1st-gen...tick-slap.html

Don't do the ATF in the gas, I agree, all injectors do tap. All they are is small electro magnets, like an old starter relay.

About half the connecting rod bearings were shot; I ended up doing a complete rebuild.
