Call the parts stores in your area. Each one. Buy whichever is cheapest.

Don't buy what is cheapest if that is an Airtex. IMHO, stay away from that brand, as there have been some reliability issues with them. I won't use them nor will I recommend them.

I specifically seek out BOSCH for fuel pumps. Best in the business and well worth the extra money.

For now.

I've seen quite a few people post negative reviews.

I wish you the best of luck.

Me too, like I said.... I'm just waiting. The problem with that is when you replace something like that then it goes out again its hard to diagnose simply because you're in disbelief that it could have already broke!!

Yeah for now. I've had THIS one for about 30 days now. And I already get to change it out because there is no pressure and the back flow regulator is effed up.
