Title: Loud buzzing from fuel pump area
Post by: adamf on 13 September, 2016, 09:13:53 PM
Hi guys,

Hope you're well, I've got my HF Turbo out on the road for a week of nice weather. Started it up only to hear a loud buzzing noise from the fuel pump area. It's been in a garage for a couple of months.

The car has plenty of fresh fuel in it.

Is the pump easy to get to and replace should I find it to be faulty? Any idea where to get a new one?

Is there an inline fuel filter? If so where do i find it? I might go about replacing that first as I imagine its cheaper.

Any thoughts welcome

Adam

Filter should be in the engine bay (Aluminium can size of red bull tin...). Pump is under the car I think at the back in a recess. You might want to change the fuel lines in this are while taking the pump out. You can find the right pump on ebay (10bar) such as this

But worth checking electrical terminations and in/out pipe sizes (generally 10 and 8 mm).

Has the pump actually stopped working? Or is it working but making an unusual noise?
