Default stupid clicking noise

What the hell is that stupid clicking noise under the hood? I just checked my exhaust, all sealed, headers need to be tightened i think, but I doubt that is where the noise is coming from. Any one know what it may be?

The most common cause is the Injectors opening and closing. Second, you have valve pucks having too much clearance.

In the Tundra, the timing belt idler pulley had a problem that would make a ticking sound.

In cold weather, and light acceleration you can hear piston slap. It's common in the Tundra, and Toyota says it won't hurt anything.

two possible causes aswell are ground strap placement and/or cracked exhaust manifold. Check the searches for these they have been adressed before. As for my truck I have no ticking . good luck
