I thought the noise was chain rattle but after setting my tensioner many times it can't be that .
My injectors are noisy to. I think it's the rockers or lifters making noise

Yeah I was running 10W40 originally, and it seemed to run fine then. Changed it to 15W40 and seems just as good. Only reason why I changed it is because when I read the ford car manual it had recommended the 15W40.
Also I bought some lifters cause mine are starting to tick, roughly in the middle I think. Doubt it's the injectors as I have replaced those.

Here is the ebay link to the person I bought them off:

No worries mate, yeah they are cheap enough and easy enough to replace so may as well try them out before attempting other things.

im thinking of getting the o rings so i dont have to tape the HLA's to the rocker arm, but ive heard they work better without them
