I just purchased a 2002 viper 700 with 1200 miles. The sled is spotless and about 20 years newer than any other sled I have ever owned which leads me to my problem. They are a little more complicated than they used to be. I have a very noticeable ticking noise at idle and low rpm. The sled runs great and really hauls. No problems with performance. I have ruled out that the noise is coming from the motor. It seems to be coming from the power valve. Is this a common noise or an indicaton that they need cleaned? Any help is greatly appreciated!
