I haven't been around other 914s in person so not sure if this is normal.
I have a dual weber 2.0 with a Facet fuel pump located under the battery tray on the block/tin.. When i turn the ignition on, i get a really loud clicking and cackling noise coming out off the engine compartment, i am guessing it's the pump. My old fiat's pump used to whine a little and sounded cool like a cam gear driven engine. This pump makes a racket and makes the running engine sound even louder. Is the noise the pump? Do facet pumps do this? Is there another electric pump i can install that will be quiet or will make a more pleasing tone? |
