Nissan 200SX Club - South Africa

Hey all,

Sometimes in the morning when I switch on the ignition of my car I heard a weird sound, sound like its from the back.

I think its the petrol pupm because its got the same sound as those external holly pumps..

Any ideas?

My Walbro does that. a hum from the back of the car

yip, but it sounds sick, like its running dry.

i dont remember the standard pump making any noise.

could be an airlock in the pump...

a friends golfie had that with its high pressure external pump - sounded totally wack!!!

ok, so what do i do?

find the problem, and then fix it!

I know that! How do i get rid of the airlock if there is one....

What if your pump alow the feul to flo back over night and have to work a bit harder in the mornings and then causes accesive noise?(want hys in sy moer)

could be, mayb its just time for a petrol pump upgrade.

not a bad idea walbro 255 about R1100 and easy to install

Come pop in at my house i'll have a listen! I had that on my golf. You will be able to hear from the noise it makes what the problem is!

I replaced mine with a BOSCH okie. Works well. Just as good and paid R800-00 bucks I think, from our drifter Charel.

VDO also make a range of pumps at reasonable prices that are internal too.

so it'll be an upgrade, but basically a replacement for your old pump.

look into that too!

what kind of noise. Mine has been making a humm ever since i got it, if you listen carefully. Sounds normal to me, then again i dont know any beter
