Fuel Pumps

I obviously haven't put a lot of miles on these pumps yet, but so far I would recommend these pumps for anyone looking for replacements. Plus they were only 22.00/ea. Seemed worth it to try them. They are just as quiet as the stock ones too.

There were no visual issues upon inspection of the pumps. They sit in fuel all the time and had little use. They were bound to go out sooner or later.

The kit comes with a strainer and various parts. I did not have to use
the pigtail adapter. They plugged right in.
Cost was $23 ea plus shipping. (I'd replace both while in there)

On the shelf they go......

Great Information.......keep us informed if there are any issues

Rock Auto.

I definitely will. There seems to be little info when discussing reliability and longevity of fuel pumps. Hopefully this will make it easier for anyone in the future.

I will say that the article written on the registry website was of great help as well.

Thanks cadillac531. I must live under a rock. I don't know much about Rock Auto. Just google'd them. Thanks! Good info for future needs.

And they are now $20.79 @ Rock auto, can't beat the price plus very good reviews so far.....worth the cost to have a set ready to go when needed!!!

I just bought them last week for $21.79. I should have them refund me $2.00 LOL.

I am assuming you bought two

Me also..........on my shelf for emergencies.
Scott used them (#P240KC) for over a year with no issues and they plugged right in without use of the pigtail adapter

Although I had an Airtex pump fail out of the box, I exchanged it and it has been at least 5 years since I replaced them (not that I'm recommending Airtex over any others, but past the one "infant mortality" event, they've been fine so far).
