I bought this truck used and there is a whinning or buzzing noise when the truck is started and continues while the truck is running coming from the rear end.
It sounds like it is coming from the fuel pump, but I never heard a fuel pump make a constant noise while the vehicle is running.
What is going on??

Do you hear the noise when sitting still? If so, it most likely is the fuel pump.
