V6 Tick Tic Tap Noise Reduced!
How'd you like that title? Now if the search engine worked life would be good  A great thank-you to PhilC64 at the Blue FJC forum. I just did this 'valve isolation' trick and it made a real difference!  You're attempting to isolate the vibrations from the VSV or Vacuum Switching Valve for the vapor purge system off of the fuel tank. EDIT: Overtime a couple of people have replied back to me that for them this mod did little or nothing. A few here and at the FJC forum have said it helps. The good news is that the mod is quick and 'free'. If it doesn't do anything for you there's nothing lost. The 1st pic is for general orientation. The only things you need are: A couple of o-rings, some double-sided sticky foam tape and a dab of the weak threadlock adhesive. I used a dab of silicone sealant.    Next is the valve removed and the tape & o-rings being installed.

I will have to get some o-rings and give it a try. I have had my windows down all summer unless I have some passengers that can not stand the heat.. What did we ever do before A/C.. I nver use it unless its well into the 90's or raining.. And yes the weather has been great over here on the east coast.

Took a look at this valve today. Is it a concern on all V6's? The only thing I noticed was the usual valvetrain noise similar on both sides of the engine. How loud is this valve and is it consistent if it is a problem?

I noticed the noise reduction most while idling in gear and under light acceleration. OFF TOPIC: I noticed a CounterAct rust protection in your sig. Did you do any posts on that? Have a link? Does it seem to help? Thanks.

I am not too concerned. The tape doesn't need to be 'tape' as it's pinched in place. If the heat affected the glue it wouldn't matter. As far as the tape itself is concerned: The tape is on the valve and the plastic intake manifold. It's so far away from the exhaust manifold or any portion of the metal engine that I can't imagine a scenario where you couldn't hold your hand on it, even the hottest summer day in traffic with a trailer.

Well your hearing is one possibility (least likely), another is your T4R doesn't do it (most likely) or possibly I'm enjoying a "placebo" high and mine is no different  I'm pretty sure it did help on mine thoughBecause it did really help mine the question becomes should I take mine in to the dealer and make my pitch for a new VSV, hmmmm
