Noisy Fuel Pump

Post by TRTerry »

I have also posted this in electrical.

My pump makes a lot of ticking noises, especially at idle. Less an occasional tick, more like Ginger Baker on a drum solo.Then a pause then off it goes again.

The car works fine and is happy at all speeds. Fuel consumption seems OK, and no obvious leaks or petrol smells.

The unit is an old Mopar equivalent and has been on this car for at least 21 years.

Should I be concerned?

Thanks


Terry

Answer posted in your identical electrical thread - perhaps this one could be marked as closed as there really isn't any point in having two identical threads (although I do understand why you might wonder which is the best forum for questions regarding the fuel pump :) )
