Ticking?

I've been hearing a ticking under my hood. I first heard it when I started up the car, so i thought that it was just the engine warming up, but today I noticed it while the engine was warmed up to the normal temp. here are two links to videos of the sound...

I've read that some people have been getting a ticking noise from their injectors. I've never experienced an injector noise in other cars so is that all this is or is it something worse?

Thanks in advance

get a video for me with you giving it a tad bit of gas not alot maybe 200-400 rpm more so i can hear the increase of that tick, sounds like just lifters though.

since there are soooo many threads about strange ticking noises I will post this link for everyone. hopefully we can figure out if anyone/everyone is having the same or different noise coming from their car.

On a side note. after the car is warm it will sometimes go away.

Man, this is like the 5th ticking evo thread I've seen... All I have to say is the lifters weren't bled.
