rofl, yeah

Well...... after putting the cab back together, the noise is gone :) celebrations! Unhappy face for not knowing what the hell it was though. Perhaps moving around the pump and picking it apart, cleaning it, and putting back together and moving the chain around solved something I didn't see or...

Thx man :D Yeah, the pump seems 100% to me, so I'm not nervous now. Will just get used to the buzz. Its the 1.6 K4M from a Clio3. I do about 12kms to work and back every day. Oil gets to about 75ish unless I misbehave. Weekends I do about 200kms visiting family, misbehaving, etc etc and she...

Thanks man. Appreciate it

Sup, quick one... When taking the head cover off, do you need the Mot. 1496 tool for the cams. I've been told the head cover holds the cams down. Is this true? Cause usually in other cars there are horseshoe type brackets that bolt down around the cams.

faulty fuel pump or injector?
