When I turn my key aux. the fuel pump makes a loud ticking noise. I can also hear it when the car is running. Is it a bad pump or could it be a faulty ground. The ground is tied back to the bracket the pump is mounted to ( rusty bracket). Or is this normal for this type of solid state type of pump. 1972 914 with carbs.
Thanks |

does it look similar to this one? they're noisy by nature. if the mount backet is fastened directly to the chassis, metal to metal, you can lesson the racket by isolating the mounting point with a piece of rubber. keep the ground clean.
