Valve Tapping or Else?
Hello, My 05 Acura TL is making a ticking sound that sounds like valve tick, is that what it is? If so, is it worth fixing or will it not cause any harm? Is this normal with j-series engines? Below is the video of the sound, the engine is completely warm at the time of this video

It may be your EVAP purge valve (which is normal to make a ticking sound). I mistook that for valve tick for a while. Pop the hood and listen near the throttle body.
