thing cranking but not starting

Post by lunnyfrank »

hi all,
got a 1973/4 181 and it cranks but does not fire up,
battery and starter is ok,

while it's cranking there is a rapid loud ticking noise on the front passenger side......

could that be the fuel pump ??

any help is appreciated,

greeting
