I know Motorcraft states that oil filters should have the same design as the Motorcraft filter, or excess noise could occur...so good choice on the filter. Some filters I've seen look nothing like the Motorcraft filter internally. I've thought about trying the (thinner) pure synthetic Lucas oil additive sometime, but didn't really know if it would be necessary.

It's just gonna be loud. My 09 4.0L has the clicking sound too that Is probably just the injectors.
I would suggest a better hood mat or some other sound deadening on the hood. Is your 4 banger used on anything else? If so, does the other vehicle utilize an engine cover? I'd try an adapt that to your engine if one is available. That should kill noise as well.

^^^^lol. Anyone watch Family Guy? "And Peter's farts never made a sound after that day."
You are probably hearing the injectors. They sound like you are clicking a pen on and off very quickly.

^^PERFECT description!! Pen clicking really fast is perfect way to describe the sound of injectors.
If a 2.3L Ford is loud to you, you better be getting earplugs....
