Does this sound right for a fuel pump?

Does my new fuel pump sound broken? Just installed an ACDelco EP274 fuel pump with new strainer and filter... The sound is not pretty... My old pump had a high pitch whirring sound that wasn't nearly as loud or slow as the new pump. Thoughts?

Sounds different than a stock one, but not bad sounding.

It is that second part that sounds odd to me, but then again I am a novice when it comes to fuel pumps. I guess the stock one has a more quiet and consistent whirring instead of the loud slow whirring ending with what I equate to two porcupines trying to mate?

It sounds like the pump starts then hits pressure. I'd ride it.

I like my pumps quiet. Thats pretty loud. Id suspect that to be an issue even if it does run.
You know where Im at, bring it down sometime

I know... I have to find a weekday that I'm not working and get a hall pass from the wife to get down there one of these days. I still have a hard starting issue when the bike has been sitting for several hours. Wish you guys were closer :sorrow:
