I just picked up my Evo Ix the other day and noticed the wetter motor in the trunk stays on for a while at times and intermittenly will shut off then come back on minutes later for a good amount of time by itself, I don't think it should be doing that but maybe I am just speaking noob. Any input?

 

What is a "wetter motor", are you hearing the fuel pump?

 

Maybe it is the fuel pump, are they located in the rear?

 

Are you talking about your rear wiper and sprayer?

 

No its coming from inside the rear passanger side fender

 

did u buy ur car used or new? if its used chance u might have a winning walbro255, if its stock id take it to mitsu n have it checked

fuel pumps are located under the rear seats

 

(ab)used haha. still am figuring out everything he did to it... 8k ..traded into my work a while back

 

( when I say "wetter" motor. I am meaning the I/C sprayer motor. )

 

IX's don't have IC sprayer. Where exactly is this coming from?

 

when this "wetter motor" (lol) comes on, are you under high throttle? If so, then it is set in the auto position. It will automatticaly spray the intercooler every so often (3 seconds? I dont remember) Just hit it back to manual. Also, the windshield wiper fluid is the one in the trunk.

 

Note my Username haha. where is the switch for it? (much learning to do if you haven't noticed)

 

Evo IXs dont have an intercooler sprayer.

 

so it's gotta be the fuel pump ya?

 

I would go look for a meth tank, if the car is modded it he might of installed one. It will look like a windsheild washer tank but it is not and you do not want it to go empty on meth or you can blow your engine.

 

try to listen to where its coming from. If its from under the rear seat, its the fuel pump, if its in the trunk, try to see where in the trunk. The windshield washer bottle is in the right side trunk paneling.
