a bit of clicking is normal. is there fuel leaking from them? have ou done any work to the fuel rail at all? you might have to replace the o-rings that make the seal between the injector and fuel rail. i replaced my fuel rail, and it's really easy to pinch those rings.

The seal might be bad...by loose do you mean you can jiggle it around in the intake manifold?

yeah if you are going to replace them use some vasoline or something so you don't rip them.
