Fuel pump noises


I recently bought a Bronco and noticed after getting it home this- after turning the key the fuel pump cycles for a sec and stops. when i start the truck , it seems that there is a very loud buzzzz in the gas tank. Is this normal or fuel pump going out?

cost me about 300.00......

now the belt keeps coming off of the power steering pump 2 ribs towards the motor. new idler tentioner and pulley, new fan clutch. all seems to line up. the pump seems to be clicking sometimes when the belt is off and i spin it. maybe its locking up? Ive been through 4 belts and the 2 shops did not see anything wrong.?????
