Virus and noise

Post by flybobbie » Tue Nov 01, 2022 2:17 pm

Think i have some sort of long covid :(

My sense of smell is supper sensitive, (reminds me need some deodorant), but also my hearing.
Only just noticed how much noise the fuel pump makes, like a quite whine in the background.
Or is it on it's way out?

Have you got one or two fuel pumps in yours? Does the noise go away depending on how much fuel is in the tank? I think I have a noisy fuel pump, sounds like someone trying to send a Morse code message... hope its not SOS :cry:

My Zed has had that noise ever since I bought the car over six years ago, especially on a full tank. No worse now than it was back in 2016.

Sorry virus effected my ability spell, or not enough suppers.

Sound is constant low level whine.
Also notice if you leave disc in dvd player that starts up as soon as you get in car with ignition off.
