GeneralDisorder Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 They are external, high pressure, electic rotory vane pumps. They make a whirring noise. That's pretty common. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idosubaru Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Good question, mine seem to be loud too and I was always wondering if it was more age or normal. I've had a ton of them be loud...not terribly loud, just louder than i'd suspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

94Loyale Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 GD is exactly right. On other car's alot of the fuel pump sound is muffled since the pump is usually located in the tank. But on our cars, it's located externally. So no fuel and a tank to quiet any of the sound it makes. All of mine were pretty audible also.
