After I drive my car for a while, I can hear what appears to be the fuel pump whining. I've put 2 new pumps on and both have done the same thing. I also changed the filter. I drained the gas tank, but there was no noticeable debris in the gas. Driveability doesn't appear to be affected when this occurs (no loss of power and/or acceleration). Is the fuel suppose to whine like it's doing? Could it be something else, possibly the power steering pump?
