After i got on the gas on the highway my fuel pump is making a whining sound when the car is on and when i click it twice the click before the car tuns on (turning the key) it makes this wierd sound like a antena is coming up and then my fan to my car turns on any idea what might of happened?

 

is it an aftermarket pump? they always sound like that.

 

what kind of pump, aftermarkets should be whinging pretty loud and if theyre not, ur beat

 

walbro fuel pump

actually it sounds like its just coming from under my car this is really bugging me then when i turn my key to the 2nd click this sound comes from underneath like a antanea is raising up

its the fuel pump dude....its normal

 

its called "priming"

 

so the silent whining sounds is normal also for the walbro 255?

 

yup. mine is loud with no interior, even louder when the gas tank is filled up, sounds like a bunch of bees

 

Completely normal.

 

alrite thanks everyone because i was just worried since it happened 3 weeks after the pump has been in the car now i have nothing to worry about
