key in "on" position, rapid clicking noise?

Ok when my key is in the on position I hear a rapid clicking noise. It seems to be comming from the injectors. I recently cleaned and flowed the injectors and had to repair some wiring. Anyone?

+1 BAC Valve would be my first guess. Normal. If you don't know where it's mounted...it's mounted on the Passenger side of the Dynamic Chamber (where it says Mazda 13B) on LHD cars, has a plug at an angle near the front, and two small dia. coolant hoses (on the front and back). Unplug and see if the noise goes away.

Same problem

I have that same clicking noise can manipulate it with slight cable movement but goes away at full throttle. car idles at 4000 with TPS unplugged but keeps climbing when plugged in. BAC valve is gone. last time it was running idle was jumping to 1000 and dieing. now when it starts it makes a growling noise first noticed on last oil change dry start.
