How can I shut this electric fuel pump up from buzzing in my ear. I have no stereo and this noise is really irritating. Its mounted in the back under the car. Im not sure if this is where it goes but I bought it like that.

The stock electric pumps are definitely noisy. I don't know if aftermarket pumps are quieter(I assume they would be). You probably would have to fashion your own mount. I didn't bother with mine because I can't really hear it when at cruising speed. Victor.

You might want to think about mounting the fuel pump with shock mount pads. It worked for me. Also, I went from a diaphram type pump to a gear driven pump. Instead of a thump, thump, thump, I now have a whirrrrrrrrrr. With the isolation pads I only hear the pump just before ignition, then I hear only the sweet music of my SU'ed L28.

thumper , if you want a quiet pump and dont want to spend $135. go to a u pull it and find a RX-7 that is carberated '80 I believe is one , any way as long as it is NOT injected. They are quiet and will pump all the fuel you need and the right pressure and about $15.00 . I have been running one for over a year and have a spair. :classic:
