odd buzzing sound coming form rear left side?? fuel pump?

[rychas1]

o and hello...i am new to cb7 accords (not hondas as i had a prelude si, and i have a vw too). anyway i havent had this car for very long, only a day or so. all other problems are being figured out, especially the immediate oil change and other cosmetics.

heres the deal. i heard this buzzing sound coming from the rear left of car. it took a day to try to narrow it down to make sense and this is all i can come up with...

- happens at idle or low speeds (as other than that i cant hear cause the exhaust is too loud)
- in my vw, when the gas is too low, the fuel pump makes a buzzing sound like its starving for liquid, and once u fill up, it goes away...but i have half a tank
- it happens randomly about every 1 minute or so when i pay attention to it

my thoughts (pure lucky guesses)
- fuel pump is going out
- something is clogged
- air in system
- i need sleep and am hallucinating

ok...any ideas? thx.

Its just a buzzing?? Not like a tapping or anything? Your fuel pump is under your back seat so if its under the left side of the car.. it might have somethin to do with exhaust..

its like a buzz/squeal sound. the exhaust is on the right side, so thats not it i dont think. so if the fuel pump is in that area...what does it mean? possibilities?

Hmmm does sound rather bit like the fuel pump....keep digging

[rychas1]

dont know what to do. dig where? check for codes?

is it loud? does it happen when youre going slow in reverse?

[rychas1]

its not loud, kinda soft, so much so that i can only hear it from in the car (not saying that further testing wont show otherwise), but thats what is obvious now. its only annoying when u listen to it. otherwise u dont think about it. im just trying to rule out that somethin is wrong (not just a normal sound). again, this is my first cb7. if im idle, rolling slow, or even as soon as i turn the car off, i hear it. its probably too soft of a sound to record it.

never mind. found out it was actually a squeaky seat.

Whoowhat?!

[rychas1]

read my first post...i hed a squeaking sound or so coming from my rear left side. i thought it may have been fuel pump related. turned out to be a badly squeaking seat.....i realized that when i sat completely still, no sound....but the slightest move, i herd it. then i move a bunch, and all sorts of squeaks came from my drivers seat. self diagnosing successful.

Whoowhat?!
