It's called direct injection. Sounds like a sewing machine doesn't it?

I know it's not easy to hear. Be careful but can you put the microphone near the water pump?

I just posted another video on my page, the noise has gotten louder recently, I have looked at videos of a bad water pump and it sounds similar, can you check my profile and give it a watch? I’ll really appreciate it if you can
