The fuel pump on my 3500 makes a constant high pitch noise. It has been doing this for about 10k. Has anyone ever had this problem?

It's a 1998. Truck has 100k. Fuel pump was replaced 20k ago. The noise started about 10k ago.
It is a loud constant whinning noise.

I bought a 2000 K3500 4 months ago with 72000 miles. It too whines loudly. I have been told that this happens as it's dieing. I will be prepared to replace in but I will run it till it stops.

My fuel pump (1998 k1500 Z71) was replaced on 10/12/01, it's a OEM pump and has whined very high pinched since the day it was installed. the old 1 didn't whine but failed at 38,000 miles. So I figure the noise is a good thing, it means it's working.
