Whine from rear

[Dtowncats]

Hey guys I started my car up the other day after being in storage during the winter and I noticed a whine coming from the rear. I am not sure if it was there when I parked it because if it was I was probably just used to it. Anyone know what could be making the noise and how do I fix it?

before the crash i had like 3 posts on that. its the damn fuel pump for mine. u can try changing the fuel filter that helped me, but its usually a sign of aging in the fuel pump

Is it your fuel pump?

I am not sure. I will be changing my fuel filter when it gets nice enough out. What would be a good replacemnet fuel pump? Would it hurt to go bigger?

does it happen while stationary or while driving only?

It is there when I am sitting. Not sure if it happens while driving. I haven't tried yet.

then it sounds like the FP, as was said (i was not sure if you thought your rear end was leaking. - wrong forum for that kind of problem) or the source of the noise.

Ok so what would be a good replacement FP and would it hurt to go with a 155 or 190?

if ur stang is mostly stock then u dont need more pressure unless u plan on upgrading. im prolly just gonna go with the 155, or maybe the 190 but many people on here are gonna say the 255 cause then you can do tons of mods

What brand should I go with and mechanical or electric?

in-tank electric replacment. walbro is good, bbk is good.
