I have discovered a new sound, it sounds like a low humming (almost like a distant fog horn) when the truck idles, as soon as I give it gas it goes away. The first start of the morning it will actually kill the truck after about 2 seconds. Then I start it up and it is good (still humming but it will run). As soon as it is warm there is no sound. When I start the truck at lunch or after work there is no sound, only in the morning.

I am thinking it is the alternator bearing going bad.

What do ya'll think?

Are you sure it isn't the IAC valve? I think that a lot of people have reported humming from the IAC.

Also, some trucks have a low pitch noise coming from the trans (mine included) there is a TSB on this:

Sounds to me like your fuel pump is on the way out.
