When you hear the tick, is it only at first start up? Is the engine oil clean and full?

You may have a spun rod bearing, can you tell if the noise is coming from the top or bottom of the engine? If the noise is at the bottom suspect a bad rod bearing. Please go over this guide to help you see what's going on.
