What is your question?
My car is making a ticking noise...it was kinda doing it before I did tune up ( spark plugs, wires, icm, air filter) but now it's a little louder...kinda sound like its coming from valve cover like a lifter its in the area of valve cover, pulley, and coils....can't tell where it's coming from but the sound like a clicking lifter....and when I go over 30 check engine start blinking
How long has your 2001 Buick LeSabre had this problem?

Hello, That sounds just like the spark plug wires arching to the valve cover. You can remove the spark plug wires from the coil end one at a time and listen for the clicking to stop. When you find the one that makes it stop, find out if there is oil there, loose spark plug, stripped spark plug port in the head, or if you change that wire to another cylinder if it follows the wire. Even new wires can be bad.
