If the fuel pump is whining bad that could very well be the entire problem. If you want to be absolutely sure, you should do a fuel pressure check.

Have you looked at the throttle position sensor? I've seen them malfunction and not set off the check engine light.

It kinda looks like an Aveo with a bed. I wouldn't mind a small truck that got good gas mileage. It's not as ugly as my fuel bill can be! Back last Christmas I saw a new South American VW pickup here...

Too much refrigerant will do pretty much the same thing. You may try putting a guage on it to see where it is when it's running.

I wonder if you can call the company and see if they'll sell you just the spindle itself? Makes me think about what you would do if you just damaged a spindle and nothing else.

It does sounds like a fuel problem. Almost sounds like it could be a fuel pump. I've had the same thing happen on a few other vehicles and it turned out to be the pump.

I drove a full size Chevy truck today that someone had cranked the bars way tight on. It didn't handle well at all. You could feel every bump in the road too. If you crank them be judicious.

I've bought a couple of OEM pumps from a guy called "Mr Fuel Pump" on Ebay. They were priced right. It's worth looking into if you go that route.

I've run them on a couple of different vehicles. They worked best with an electric fan. I liked running them on my Mustang. Don't expect anything drastic though.

It does only make the noise in drive, doesn't do it at all in reverse. The motor seems to move a little more than normal even at idle.
