Not necessarily true.
I'll agree but I can't hear mine and I've checked pressure on a lot of
pumps over the last seven years and the noisy ones always test the
weakest. Most are marginal at best.
I throw away the noisy fuel pumps and if you bought a noisy fuel pump the
first thing you'd do is demand your money back.
A spare fuel pump is a good part to have and I have no problem at all
saying that.
