Could be injectors opening and closing, or a lifter bleeding down and making noise. Just too hard to say without actually hearing it.Ben

If it gets louder after running it hard, I would vote lifters. If it gets louder after you pull the injector cover off that says "Twin Dual Cam V6" I would say injectors. Both are common with the DOHC.-60v6's 2nd Jon M.
