When I press on the gas noise comes out like a commercial vacuum. I have change the gas pump today still have the same problem. I have no issue when I start it works great and it doesn't use more gas.

Your description sounds like a leak in the air intake line between the air filter box and the throttle body on the engine. They can crack and sound like that due to the air being drawn through the crack instead of through the air filter. It can also be an issue if there is a vacuum leak in the brake booster.
