My GTX is whinning from the fuel pump, so I assume its on its way out. :ire: Whats weird is when I use more electric < turn lights on > it goes down a few decibels! lol :dunno:


Where's the best place for a new injection fuel pump? I noticed a few on the Bay for £150.00 but thats taken the mickey!

Thanks in advance! :thankyou:

Do these pumps fail/get noisy often? My Scala's had 2 in the past 4 or five years, and the one in there now isn't exactly silent.

they can whine for years without giving up, I know the one on my old gtx was whining when i got it and whining 3 years later when i sold it.reminds me of a few lady friends I used to know...they never gave up either.
