How loud is your fuel pump?

[czwalga]

Here's a video of my fuel pump. It seems excessively loud; reminds me of my old race cars, I can hear it running sitting in traffic. I was going to do what I can to quiet it, but wanted to post a video to see if this was 'normal'. I'm in the USA and this is the only TVR I've ever been around. I realize all external pumps are loud, but this is louder than I'd expect and I know sometimes they get louder once they are worn.

I've listened to a bunch of startup videos on youtube and I dont really even hear the pump. If its normal, i'll do what I can to quiet it, if it's not I'll replace the pump.

After priming before starting I don't hear mine when running.
