Mike,
  The fuel pump should tick slowly at idle, and tick faster at higher 
engine speeds.
  If the engine is shut off with the ignition key in the "on " position,
  the pump will tick until the float bowls are full.
  Then back-pressure should shut the pump off until you start the engine.
  A little fuel pump primer for you; if you'll pardon the pun :).       

God Bless,
