injector clicking

[240sxracer]

well today my starter gave me proublems and i finaly had to hit it with the hammer to start. so it starts and im looking at the engine with the flashlight and i notice a clicking noise so i track the noise down and its coming from the injectors some alot louder than others. ive never noticed the clicking before is this normal because some click pretty loud while the others are pretty quiet. &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>

every 240 I have ever seen does that. &nbsp;It's just the way the &nbsp;injectors are designed.

I'm pretty sure it's normal. &nbsp;Mine's done it ever since I've had it with no ill effects. &nbsp;I just took it as a "quirk" of the engine.

all injectrs click/tapping thats the solenoids inside.

According to chilton's, it's when they STOP clicking you have a problem. &nbsp;The way to trouble shoot your injectors is listen for that clicking noise. &nbsp;It's normal, and like camppain said, it's the solenoids inside.

Ahhh well thanks guys, I was wondering about that. Speaking of clicking, has anyone ever removed the chain guide on &nbsp;the bottom the the engine? I got rid of the one on top, but never bothered to hunt for the bottom one.

thanks

everyone that gets in my car ask me what is that clicking noise
it is soooooooooo annoying (i can deal with the injectors but not the questions)
any advice? a 22mm next to me?

ok, cool, mine has always done that! &nbsp;i was afraid that it was a bad tick, like a valve or something. &nbsp;good for me, my engines not gonna blow up!! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
