My intank pump makes a noise that is not constant as well. It can be a little unnerving because it makes you think you have something going bad....

after 280,000 miles you start to think that about a lot of things.

my general rule of thumb has been that if it isn't broken don't fix it...

unfortunately that means you might be stuck somewhere without a fuel pump.

but mine has been running for 2 years now with that noise so I'm figuring it's probably ok.

I wouldn't worry about it AND I would get a spare fuel pump relay to have in your glove box in case you do end up with a bad relay... it's easier to switch out in a pinch than the intank pump .
