    While camping I've noticed my Taco makes a noise at night. It doesn't always make this noise just some times. It sounds like an electric motor of some kind. I noise seems to be coming from around the gas tank. Every time i've heard the noise it been at night while i'm in the bed sleeping. Anyone know what it is?

    My only guess would be something with the fuel pump. Only guessing not really tech savvy

    Cool I figured it was normal, just curious as to why she was making noises while I'm sleeping.

    There's a TSB for it.

    That's the soul of your tacoma leaving the earth at night and venturing off to Fremont California or San Antonio Texas and hanging out with its brothers and sisters..

    The tsb will tell it to quiet down a bit and will give it a curfew.
