LOUD fuel pump after running awhile
For reasons unknown to me, the fuel pump seems to un excessively loud after running awhile. I just installed a Walbro 340 HP pump in my 87 IROC with the LB9 and when I turn it on, I get the usual 2 second hum of it pressurizing. The pressure is at a constant 40 psi at idle, whether the pump is loud or not. Also, when I drive awhile at night, it is not as loud. Can someone tell me what is the deal here?

I'm not mcuh help on the subject. Is it possible that the lines are clogged from the TPI rails down to the tank?
My walbro is sometimes louder than others, but I think that is just me.

I am pretty sure that they are not......but that would not explain why it acts that way only when it has been run for awhile.
