If you can hear the fuel pump while the Jeep is running, then the fuel pump is going bad or the fuel filter is partially clogged. Replace the fuel filter now. It could last for a while in that condition or die tomorrow. Mine ran that way for about a week before going out completely. Don't make my mistake -- go ahead and replace it immediately!

Why Volvo 240 fuel pump noisy?

The main fuel pump can be noisy if it does not get enough fuel, mostly if the in-tank fuel pump is not working. For example if your gas tank is pretty full, you most likely do not hear any noise since the weight/pressure of a full gas tank is providing more pressure for the main fuel pump which is mounted underneath the car in a subframe. So if your main fuel pump is getting noisy with an almost empty gas tank it's most likely the in-tank fuel pump that is not working. Also check the corresponding relay (usually white) underneath the passenger glove compartment. Bottom line, If your fuel is pump noisy, but you are still driving, your main pump most likely is still good while the in-tank pump is not working.

Replaced fuel pump in1993 jeep grand Cherokee but still have to turn key over 10 or so times until fuel pump kicks in then it will start Replaced fuel relay still having problem?

I have the exact same problem. After replacing the fuel pump everything was fine. Now the fuel pump does not always kick on and you have to turn the ignition on and off until you hear the fuel pump kick in. Went to start this morning and fuel pump did not kick in, still wont. So I checked the relays, all good. Now the fuel pump kicks on but it still wont start. Did the computer on this thing die?
