I recently replaced the fuel pump in the truck but i have a ticking sound under the hood. I heard it when i reversed and either when i am idle or sometimes i hear it when i accelerate. What should i be checking?

You may want to look at the fans relay and wiring. First I would look at a failed relay causing it to stay on. Secondly I would look at the wiring being shorted but that would be something you would want a repair center to do if you do not understand electricity.

1st I will check the heat shield maybe it got loose-or something else loose upfront if not these could be coming from the valvetrain-meaning valve lash adjustment or a leakdown problem with lifters.
