Hello all,
I believe that my fuel pump is starting to make more noise. Either that or the car is getting quieter. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) It has been relocated to the front by the PO and it is a new pump. It is not a strange noise for the pump, just more noticeable. Could it be that the fuel filter is clogged? If so what size is the inlet and outlet on the filter? I have included a photo to show the set-up.

tip. use the modern lined gas hose rather than teh old style german stuff. the new fuels do attack many rubber parts susch as the old styl;e hoses. the new hoses are now rated SAE 30R9 and have a teflon like inner liner that is resistant tot eh new oxygenated fuels.
when you switch to the resistant hose, you cant use the style of hose clamps yo have now, you must use the solid band type (you can use the band with holes so long as youhave a cloth wrap hose). at anyrate the new fuels will eat up the old hoses much faster than originally, so keep an eye on it until you upgrade. not some rebuilts pumps are very nosiey, I have one that has been that way for years, still works, just got used to it. |
