Keith,
Check the suction line from tank to pump. The pump is probably sucking air. 
This is the reason for the fast clicking.

Listers,

This one has really got me stumped.  A couple weeks ago went on a 40 or so mile 
ride.  Car ran great.  No probs.  At one point I was stopped and I could hear 
the fuel pump clicking away, 3-4 clicks per second.  This was true whether at 
idle or higher rpm.  I knew that normally at idle there was an occasional click.

Once back home I restarted the car and same thing.  Then over several days I 
attempted to fix the prob.  A different pump gave the same results.  I replaced 
the filter and still same thing.  Oh BTW there was no fuel underneath as is the 
case when a float needle is stuck and fuel comes out the overflow.  No fuel 
shows up anywhere.

Why does the pump continue to click so fast?????  Why does it NOT slow to an 
occasional click?????  What is the fix????  I am flustered.
