So the car has been running great. Dsm link no problems. Steve fixed my ECU that has been working great. Well like most DSM's you have a belt squeal so no concerns well then my drivers side low beam will not work but all other lights work. I changed the bulb no go. So i wired it into the other light and has been workign fine. Well the other day I was pulling out and I get this crazy ticking noise from the passenger side kick panel figure it out it is the relay making the noise. what happens when it is ticking i still have fuel and AFR read fine but when you start to give it gas ticking gets quicker and then car falls on face and AFR read LEAN then you let off gas and it comes back. so i parked the car for the night started it up and all was good. then on my way home it does it again and so I let it sit for a few Hours come out change relays to see if it fixed problem. it starts fine get to the gas station 3 miles down the road then about to leave and it starts ticking again.

WHAT COULD THIS BE LOL. I changed relays no go. could it be an ALT issue? could it be my ECU? why after I let it sit it starts fine then starts doing it again like 3-5 mins after driving?
 
Check the 12v relay you used to do your fuel pump rewire, when mine started going out it was doing the same thing. Its so loud though its hard to tell where in the hell the clicking is coming from...
