Hi ,
I have been experiencing a high pitch noise from my 1936 Austin 7 Special, running on early 30s parts.
The car has been fitted with a electronic 6V SU fuel pump, I suspect this is the source of the noise.
My motor repair shop has replace the bearing on the distributor, that solve the problem for few weeks, it seems, but now I get the noise again.
We checked and confirmed fan pulley was ok, and not the source of the noise.
Apart from the noise, the cars runs well, starts well, brakes well, no overheating.
I just do not want to run the car till something breaks apart, so if I can trace and rectify the source of the noise, I would like to get it sorted out.
Appreciate your valuable feedback.
