I do not know how old the fuel pump is on my car and am thinking about replacing it with a new one. Or at least having a new one in my trunk. They are only $35, so it isn't a huge investment. I've looked at different parts store web sites and the only brand that they all seem to carry is "Airtex".
3642
Does anyone have an opinion as to whether this brand is OK, or have a recommendation as to something that would be better?
