Default Failing Walbro ?

Hi all,

My car is a yr2000 UK Turbo.

I know the walbro pump is a bit louder that the std pump, but last week driving down to Cornwall (200'ish mls for me) and about half way stopped for lunch & noticed the pump was REALLY loud.
Got to my destination & was still loud so during the week (short trips) I was hearing out for it but the noise was back to as has been just a tad louder than a std pump.
Coming back today I stopped after around 90 mins of continued driving & the loudness was back

I know it's difficult yay or nay, but could it be the start of the Walbro failing/tiring out ?

Cheers all,
