I adjusted my valves, and my ticking went away for a couple days it seemed but then came back. After research I decided to replace my timing chain tensioner, WHAM problem solved. The sound should be damn near the same, if I were you I wouldn't waste my time on another valve adjustment.

 

I checked the valves, all in tolerance, the noise must be all in my head.
I have changed the TCT about 2500miles ago, the new one doesn't have the card in spokes on start-up.

As mike says it could be the injectors, I will wait to the next meet to compare.

Thanks for all the replies...

 

the injectors are loud mofo's... my mechanic here at work (Honda Dealer) put a stethoscope up to the head to find out what was ticking cause it got on my nerves. he went to one of the injectors and you can hear the tick tick tick coming from them

 

i am about to do my 4th valve lash adjustment on my own s, it never ticks or make funny noise when i tq them down properly.
