Should U Hear Fuel Pump

[splant 0]

my 1.9 catalyst models started dying spluttering then going ok again ive tried leads and a dizzy cap and rotor arm to no avail, it all started when i filled her up [usually only put £20 in] wondered if the petrols cleaned the top half of the tank and now clogged the pump filter up ,, as ive noticed i can hear the pump buzzing away on tickover and i never noticed it before ? or is this normal ,,,,, a new coils on the way although the one ons only 12 mnth old but its just a cheap motaquip one are these prone to fail early? cheers folks

You can hear the pump, although it's not normally obvious with the engine running unless you're very low on fuel (which the pump starts whinning) especially if you've a full interior fitted.
