The noise is probably your fuel pump. Its normal, but make sure you have a ballast resistor (its located in the engine compartment toward the front of the driver side fender). It has two wires that go to it. Someone may have bridged it out. I think its a 1 ohm resistor and it helps quieten the noise the fuel pump makes.
