     I installed a Facet fuel pump behind the drivers seat under the rear 
seat/parcel shelf. I like the location. Good access and I can see the fuel 
filter by looking through the spoke wheels. I can also change the filter of 
fuel pump without jacking up the car. I mounted the pump on doubled 1/16th inch 
thick neoprene washers to buffer the noise.
     So, now when I drive the car it sounds like a woodpecker pecking away 
under the parcel shelf. Damn the thing is loud. What is the best way to quiet 
it down? All my concocted ideas are unbelievably complicated and probably 
overkill. Any listers have a simple way to quiet this thing down? 
     TIA,

     Bill in Tehachapi
