G'day,

I have a troopy (1HZ motor) and for the past 2 weeks, a hissing noise has developed at the front of the engine. Sounds like like around the fuel injection pump (but I do not know yet where the vacuum pump is so it could be that). The hissing noise is intermittent and changes with the revs. Anybody had a similar noise and can point me in the right direction?

Cheers,

Didier.

It's not a loose air hose is it?
Now is the only time you own
Decide now what you will,
Place faith not in tomorrow
For the clock may then be still

That's what I am thinking about. Will check at the weekend. The vacuum pump is in the area the noise seems to come from. Cheers.

Checked the vacuum pump and I cannot see anything wrong. However, the main vacuum line is not in good shape (rubber nearly perished) so I will replace it. Of cause, could not get the hissing noise to happen ;-)
