Hi,
Been driving the past few days and there was a ticking noise that got faster with the revs (and quite oddly less in 3rd).
I opened the bonnet (baring in mind I'm very much a novice with engines) and saw that in time with the ticking noise was this small arm on what I now know to be the fuel lift pump. It was reving up and down great guns!
I ID'd the part and saw how it should be housed, the leaver should be up. Pushed it up quite firmly and past a stop piece. and it is not moving anymore.
Just wondering should there be a clip of some sort? There is none I can see, other than a recess. Also if it's normal for this to happen when the fuel lift pumps are on their way out or any other advice on this please?
