Fast clanking/vibrating noise
In my 1982 Firebird V6 when i get in and turn the key the car starts up and everything fine, except for one noise that i have no idea about. When i turn the key to ACC there is a fast vibrating noise that comes from the trunk/ left back wheel area. This continues when the car is running. Like i said, i am not familiar with this noise or any thing the would make it occur. Any thing that i should be concerned about? Thank you.

Forgot to mention that as it has been getting colder, to about 20-30 degrees, the noise has gotten louder.

Also , I'd not leave it in the ACC position with the engine not running and the pump running . One speck of dirt in your carb's needle & seat and you'll fill your engine with gas .
PS , generally speaking , the colder it gets , the louder a lot of pumps become ...
