Noise stops if the fuel pump is removed.
A
small noise is normal. Care should be taken as it can easily be mistaken for
another sound.
Inspect the intake manifold and air cleaner for appropriate installation.
Try plugging the place where the air gets in with engine oil, grease or cotton
waste.

Squealing sound
The sound occurs on sudden acceleration from idle.
Adjust the belt to the standard tension.
Inspect the belt for wear, cracking and oil.

This can be heard loudly from the bottom of the engine when accelerating
Check by removing the belt and turning the alternator by hand.
sound
The knocking sound is loud when the engine is cold, and grows quieter or
stops as the engine warms up.
Since auminum alloy pistons expand more than the cylinder, the piston
clearance grows smaller and the side knock grows smaller.
If the spark plug is disconnected, the sound changes and generally grows
quieter.

When the engine is at the speed when the knocking sound usually occurs
(about

Knocking sound
The noise gets louder as the engine warms up, and is a harder sound than
the piston side knocking.
When the engine is at the speed when the knocking sound usually occurs
(about
1000 rpm), if the spark plug is disconnected, the knocking sound
changes.
The noise stops when the belt is removed and the engine is running.
Check for bending of the fan, loose fit, or runout.
The sound becomes louder on sudden acceleration.
The sound becomes quieter or stops when the clutch pedal is fully
depressed,

sound is similar to crankshaft bearing knocking, but it sounds harder.
Put a sound scope on the timing chain cover to check.
The noise becomes louder if the engine is run at high speed.
