bad alternator, bad ground or possibly, loose nut behind the wheel

are you sure its the fuel pump? my idle changes slightly depending on how hard i press the pedal, i just figured this was from the brake booster vacuum

I'm gonna check the alternator cuz I drove my car one day and the batt is dead the next lol... And yea it's the fp cuz the buzzing sound gets lower

Brake lights go on, if theres a poor ground or something, the FP can't get as much
juice, especially with the stock wiring harness.

Put the FP on a relay with power directly from the battery. Problem solved.

I had the same thing happening after I installed the Carter fuel pump. It was probably happening with the old pump too, but you can't hear those like you can a Carter.

As T G Farrel suggested up above, I installed a relay and ran new wiring. Problem solved. Of course, it probably wasn't a problem at all, but still, I didn't like it so I fixed it. lol.

i was with Oneiros, i figured it was just vacuum from the brakes making my revs drop slightly. but then again i know i have a bad ground somewhere since i've replaced battery cables, added an extra ground, upgraded to a TII alternator and my voltage still drops significantly when i turn my lights on specially while braking or with the turn signal.

damn, just realized after posting, that my post was no help what so ever, sorry, i guess i just felt like venting for a while.
