    pump sounds very noisey andy, if you leave it to prime up it stops. start it up again and then switch off. it sounds like someone rinsing at the dentist i assume it is drawing in air some where , it starts and runs fine but the noise of the pump drives the poor sod batty :wacko: ron.

    same on ours, turned out to be crank shaft damper pulley. although it did not appear to have much play, but what a difference it made, hope you get it sorted because it does tend to drive you nuts. ron.
