Story is started the car and let the fuel pump prime....then drove off...After 10 mins of driving the pump would eventually get a loud hizzing sound...

While revving the hizzing is loud but toleratable

but when i take my foot off the accelerate pedal to slow down or came to a complete stop, the hizzing sound would get really loud....

My fuel tank level is half way and i put bp ultimate...

Any one got any ideas?

PS. When a mate installed the fuel ppump it was running fine..Test drive it for 2 days then i stored the car for 6 months in the garage...6 months later started to use it today and all this happened.....

Hey man, i had a real noisy buzzy fuel pump wen i bought my car ,heard it from the moment i put ignition on, got louder wen i accelerated, i thought it was aftermarket until i took it out to change it. does ur car take a while to crank?

my old one died on me, turned out to be a shitty stock one,,maybe u should check the wiring on it, but otherwise from wat ive heard, aftermarket ones are meant to be a bit loud..

but yeh, the one i installed in my car only buzzes wen i turn ignition on, and never again

What pump did he install? Some aftermarket ones are rather loud, i have a Bosch 040 in my R33, and it is rather loud but i live with it.

Benzimo - my car cranks fine..i just gotta wait for the priming to finish which only takes 5 secs

I can live with the noise but i just wanna know if the fuel pumps are meant to have a loud buzzing sound when accelerating and on idle...

Aberax - Its a bosch 023 (big bro of 040 i think)

My Walbro makes a similar noise, kind of like that noise your speakers make when they are not hooked up properly. Got really worried because I thought the Walbros were rather quite. Went to my tuner and all good just noisy, you get used to it.

Just turn the radio up louder to drown it out...hehe

      Um. No. Since Matt introduced the TIM it has become a lot easier to deal with the consequences of changing K for AFM and injector swaps. Then, tuning is a f**king doddle. No-one needs to know or care how many grams of air are flowing or any other bullshit. Need more fuel in a cell? Add more fuel. Need more timing in a cell. Add more timing. Need to adjust any of the other tables for warm up and so on? No harder than anything else. Sure - it's not an ECU system for starting from scratch on an arbitrary engine. But then.....it was never supposed to be, not recommended for, and almost never used that way. So.... On your engine, in particular, Nistune/Nissan OEM is about as sophisticated and difficult as banging 2 rocks together. Those ECUs are primitive and simple. There is nothing difficult there. I learnt Nistune from scratch, created new maps with extended axes, interpolated/extrapolated the original maps onto them and tuned my RB20 (basically the same ECU as your 26 ECU) all by myself, more than 20 years ago. And that was long before even TIM.

      Set of knee pads for a R34. Will fit every model I think. Comes with everything except the rubber covers for the bolt holes. Still in great condition. You will need to drill holes to mount these or use double sided tape. I can do free shipping and will be shipping from the Netherlands with tracking.

      Nistune needs something like an entire excel spreadsheet in which you build an abstraction layer that converts everything from real units you can actually measure into all of the various tables. The number of unexpected dependencies hiding in how the Nissan ECUs do math is a pretty impressive optimization trick for 8-bit MCUs but good god is it awful to actually work with in practice.
