Sometimes a bad spark plug wire arcking against the head will sound like a ticking but still send enough spark to the plug to ignite with out missing.

I know exactly what your talking about, my car does the same thing...It gets really loud whenever i first turn on the car and gets quieter as i drive, but you can still hear it...i dont know what it could be connected to...ive been looking at it and ive been told it had something to do w/ the manifold but i dunno...let me know if you have figured out what it was
