Well they shouldn't have messed with any of the valve train components to do the HPFP.

Does sound like something is dry in there.

This noise could mean potentially big problems I'm afraid! Might have a scored cam from a bad lifter!

I've been following this thread, that video sounds pretty ugly! What has the dealer said about this?

How do you know it's a rocker and not a injector making the noise?

The tech electricly turned off injector with truck running with no change in noise, They changed rocker today no change in noise! Ford thinks its a failed lifter

I would tend to think it is isolated at the lifter. Suppose they can do that with the cab still back on.

Wonder if they will or would want to pull the cab.

Cab is coming off again. Tech thinks lifter failed messing up cam shaft.
Looks like a new lower half of motor.

I suppose if they have to go in that far they would want it right out in the open. That is some rotten luck there.

It is definitely strange that you only started hearing this noise IMMEDIATELY after the work was completed. Makes me wonder if they dropped a bolt or something while they were changing the HPFP???? That could cause serious damage.
