Mark, LOL. That's one way to to tell if it is running (pumping). If there is an audible "click", it is running. If it is too noisy to hear it, if you can reach it, feel it. If it is running/clicking it will be vibrating...you can feel it. If you can't do either, I guess that is what fuel pressure guages are for, huh?
