Very noisey tapping noise on start up and tick over I did look and it sounds alot like tappet.

Question is how hard to do and should I change injectors at same time?
it is likely just the injector, got a vid of the sound?
No as cant figure out video upload

Its not mine but sound very very similar
Watching on my phone but Crank Pulley OK?
Not sure but cambelt was done 7 months ago but to tell the truth I not sure done well

Ok so here is the noise from mIne

doesnt sound regular enough to be tappets, unless one of them is literally flapping around without any sort of guidance in the head, i would hazard a guess at a pulley too, someone with a lot more experience should be along anytime soon (poodle? lol)
Have a look at the pulley, it might be obviously eccentric or showing bits of shiny metal.
Is it ok to drive with it as cant get one done till next year
I wouldn't drive that car another inch until its been properly checked out
As above. That's almost definitely crank pulley, get it checked and changed now before it takes the cambelt with it. Bring it up to me today if you like, i'm not working and can sort it out immediately, will drop you a pm.
