Me, too. What Craig said. Only thing I haven't done is drop the gas tank to see if there is crud blocking the exit to the line which would cause cavitation. Bubbles in the fuel line, as it were.

I have given up and accepted the noise. I turn the stereo up louder. I have a spare fuel pump with me and a few clamps.
