i had this same problem and research it for a long time on here. the consensus was that it was normal. everyone assured me it was just annoying.....wouldn't be harmful

Our S197's seem to have the noisiest injectors I've ever heard.

yea i read the tsb and ford says that its not a perfomance issue and nothing is actually wrong they suggest that to aviod that noise it says that the cam phaser and bolt would have to be replaced but everything seems to be normal this is my first s197 i have had fox bodys and sn95s before but love this new platform so much improvment especially in handling
