for some reason, when the car is running, i noticed that i cannot hear the loud whine of my walbro fuel pump anymore... but my car still runs... is it messed up?
actually.. damn.. i just noticed that when i turn the key to the 'on' position, i can't hear the whine either... i'm assuming the FP is still working since i can drive the car... but its not pressurizing or something so not making the whine?

Just a thought but... if you just filled up with gas your pump will be much quieter... Sound waves can't travel as easily through liquids as they do through air.
The only time I can hear my walbro pump is when I'm well below 1/4 tank. --------------------  Project ST204.5 99.88946% complete... |
