electric fuel pump noise

[JT!]

as soon as I turn on the key, my fuel pump makes a loud crackling buzzing sound similar to when you leave your keys in the car (before cars had chimes)

the pump works, but is it failing?

...gm 5.7 v8 with a 12v electric pump...

The plastic cover on the flame arrestor says "Quantum" it may or may not be original to the motor.
