The fuel pump runs for a few seconds every time you turn the ignition on to ensure it's primed.*


* - On DBW Omegas. I believe some earlier ones don't prime

Often it'll fire a shot of fuel through the injectors at the same time. I think it then starts a timer to inhibit priming for a while, so if you turn on and off a few times, you don't flood the engine.
