Hey guys, I recently discovered that my injectors were making a loud ticking noise similar to someone shaking a spray paint can. You can hear the video at

Okay so relevent information:

I took the engine cover off to make the noise easier to hear.
I recently changed to a gallant air intake (modifying the original air box) but I don't know if this would make a difference at idol?
Air filter is spotless (just had service including filter change at a mitsi dealer)
Air box is spotless
This sound ONLY occurs on lpg.
Car feels to run fine on both lpg and gas.
No CEL
Car appears to run hotter on lpg but the temp guage does not reflect this (my imagination?). I can feel warmth of the engine on the side panels.

This is the first time i have popped the bonnet and listened to the car running since both the service and the intake change (theses are my suspects).

I have listened to it and can say that it looks and sounds perfectly normal mate.

With the engine cover off it always sounds a lot louder too.

Enjoy your cheap motoring on LPG....
