BlueTrain Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Ok. Ive owned the Loyale for over a year. The fuel pump has always been quite noisy. A loud humming noise to be exact. i've put something like 14,000 miles on it with no problems. However, whenever i use the turn signals, i can hear the fuel pump pulsing in time with the turn signals. Any ideas? thanks... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 funny thing, ol jim wood's wagon was doing that today. not too noisy to worry about. i had a dl that got loud after i ran it out of gas, but still worked fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueTrain Posted January 17, 2005 Author Share Posted January 17, 2005 ya, its not really the loudness of the fuel pump that worries me. It's the fact that i can hear the fuel pump whirring in time with the signals. i presume it is drawing power from the fuel pump. hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BANgLE Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 I know this thread is ancient but I think I have this exact problem. I originally thought it might have been alternator whine or something but this fits the picture to a T. It's quite a loud hum and drops in tone with the turn signals. It's done it since the day I bought my car. 1990 Loyale 5spd 4wd 235,xxxkm's. Any solutions other then turning up the music? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 mine does the same thing. Looking forward to hearing an answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjw Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 From what I've read on the board here,it's not an issue,really. More of an annoyance. I can't remember what was said that might cause it,thou. My Loyale does the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
