    Walked out in the garage more than once and have heard the fuel pump running on my 2009 Tacoma. Any ideas? Relay or pump problem?

    Ok, I guess I should have read the link first... I guess it's nothing new, but this is my 1st Toyota, so it's new to me.
    "It's not the fuel pump. It's the vacum pump in the evap system. It pulls a vacum in the fuel tank and related hoses and then checks for leaks......"

    Should typically happen 4-5 hrs after shut down. If you have a manual, it states this is normal, and when and why it happens. :cool:
