Need help with a noise under gas lid
zachem2 replied to zachem2's topic in 986 Series (Boxster, Boxster S)
Thanks for the info. The pump does run and then shuts off. It doesn't run all the time. I didn't have a check engine light, then I hit a huge pot hole and it came on. I pulled the obd codes and I am getting code 0650 Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Control Circuit Malfunction error, so now I wonder if some one tried to disable the CEL before they sold the car. The CEL seems to have issue, OBD always comes back with 0650, but the CEL is not always on. Back to the pump running, I don't think mine has a vent tube attached to the gas cap. Unless the ruber thing that keeps the gas cap from falling is a tube. I do have a hole and when the pump runs I feel something (I think pressure). If I put my finger over the hole the pump stops running. When I get home this evening, I will take a picture of under the gas lid. I maybe missing a hose. -
I just bought a 00 Boxster S and I am trying to figure out if a noise is normal or if it is a problem. The noise is coming form under the fuel lid and it sounds like a air compressor or some kind of pump. I found a hole on the front side of the fuel compartment under the fuel lid, when I put my finger in the hole the noise stops. Does any one know what this is and what the hole is for. Please help
