Gremlins inside dash!

Hey just found this board there is alot of good info here. looked through the archives and couldn't find anyone with my problem. I have a 93 bronco 351 and when I am driving and am giving it gas I get a buzzing sound from behind the dash on passenger side it sounds like a cross between a radio buzz and a leaf being stuck in the vent.But it is neither of those things Noise stops once I let off the gas and starts again when I get back on the throttle the more gas I give the louder it gets. noise is definately inside the cab behind dash does anyone have any ideas could it be some sort of relay that controls the throttle/fe? this is driving me insane. Thanks in advance for any help.

Maybe unsafe...but it wont be if you're on a good length of road. Get someone to stick their head under there as you cruise down the road and feel around with a flashlight. If you get lucky and the noise IS inside the cab...you just might find it. It might be as easy as a jittering glovebox or a shorted wire.

A bad cat can trick you into thinking it is inside the dash.

it sounds like a bad radio ground. that is usually the same type of sound a bad ground makes.
