I know I'm talking about completely different ends of the spectrum for engines, but wow. For it's part, the foam does a great job blocking the noise.

I did the exact same thing and had the same reaction to the loud ticking noises. I guess it is because our engines are direct injection while most engines are not. Without that foam pad the noise is so much louder! lol


Btw... I think AMP probably makes the electrical pin(out) tool you are looking for. But even SnapOn or the like should make a compatible pin removal tool.
