TPI ticking noise
I got this ticking noise comming from the passenger side of my motor since I owned the car, mostly when it's first started up. When I removed the injecter wire from that cylinder the noise is comming from it goes away. the car is a 85 TA tpi 5.0, any ideas what is causing this.

Its very common for the injectors to tick. All 8 of my new injectors tick.

Re: TPI ticking noise
Yeah especially Accel injectors tick and also Ford injectors (not as loud as accel)

and 1985 injectors got some years on them so they can tick/click, nothing to worry about if the car runs fine and starts good, and all that.

Re: TPI ticking noise
the fpr is a ticker for sure,,,, usally the noise people hear is on the pass side( same as fuel pressure regulator) .... if you take a screwdriver and put the metal end on the fpr youll hear it. Nothing to worry about.
