Do these fuel pumps typically make a buzzing noise or is that indication of it starting to go bad?

Thanks!

You might be lucky and it just needs a new filter,  pumps like that often buzz when they are working hard.
I used to have long hair, took acid and went to hip joints. Now I long for hair, take antacid and need a new hip joint

If it needs it fair enough but mine was just as noisey old/new filter.
