autocat, I would say to get your hands on a stethoscope and see if you can narrow down where the ticking is coming from. Based on what you are describing, it is sounding like iti s a lower crank bearing that is getting sloppy. But, to access the bearing, you have lots of stuff that you need to disassemble to access it.
