	Maybe. It could be that you have a gas tank that is flaking inside. My son's
'88 5KS was that way. Had a "new" fuel pump when we got the car from the
original owner. The buzzing got continually worse. We were able to pull the
fuel pump and wipe all the plastic-like residue off the screen and reinstall.
It's still quiet after about 20,000 miles.

	Later.
