Take out your rear seat. If the whining gets louder, it's your fuel pump.

Does the volume/ tone of it change with speed or with RPM? Any other info? Try searching with quote marks around your phrases. I've had more success getting results like I used to that way, even when just puting quotes around 2-3 words.

If the pitch doesn't change w/either revs or road speed, I vote fuel pump. Is is a Walbro? Those suckers can get LOUD... I was really freaked out the first time I heard mine, when my tank was just about bone dry.
