the whine was prolly from the pump using more force to suck fuel thru the sludged filter. 'probably'... the x is still under observation though so i'll keep u posted.
wasnt so lucky with the chirpin sound tho, actually took out the belt and when i spun the alternators wheel head i heard the sound again so its probably the bearings in the alternator.
still tryin to get my hand on a diagnostic machine, will let u know when i do.
thanx again!

Hi ob1.
I got a bit confused here...
Which filter was slugged up..?
Was it the fuel filter or the grid in the fuel pump..?
And did you have to take the pump out to get to it.??
Im having the same whining sound and would like to sort it out..
BTW. when standing under the car, the whining sound seemes to come from just about right under the right side rear passanger seat.
