What brand did you use that you are happy with?

My eBay Herko one lasted almost exactly one year.
I have better things to do with a Saturday than drop a tank.

No sense in searching the forum.
A good brand replacement part 3 years ago may be made in a different Chinese factory now.

1998 Chero XJ 4.0

Denso worked well for me. I replaced it about 6 years ago, so not sure they are still made as well.

Bought the delphi pump from rockauto, the pump fixed my issue, but I bought delphi hoping it wouldn't come with "made in China" stamped on the part, but it did.

It boggles my mind that [people still buy car parts on eBay, and then are surprised when it's crap. I'm on a diesel truck forum, and we just had a guy post with a no-start condition after replacing all his glow plugs with brand new AC Delco plugs. From eBay. He tore his hair out trying to find the problem. We kept telling him to test his GPs. No, couldn't be that, they are all brand new. He finally gave in and pulled them and tested them. Most of them were bad. Don't blame Delco. Blame the counterfeiters that sell on eBay.

At least if you buy crap from Autozone you might have a warranty.

You can still get a Bosch. If you don't mind dinking with replacing the pump in the whole assembly, that's what I would do.

IF you don't want to mess with that, go with the Delphi.

Either way you get a guarantee, unlike Fleecebay.

I too recently got a Delphi from Rockauto for my ‘98.

its been wishing the last 9 months - year. Has been working great, and so far I’m very happy with it.

Sure there is plenty of junk and counterfeit parts sold on eBay, but plenty of good parts and good sellers.
Last week I picked up the genuine Honda transmission solenoid valves from a dealer in Milwaukee for a fraction of what the local dealer wanted.
I've scored excellent NOS parts for Jeep CJs too.

Thanks to Chinese business practices, auto parts are totally a crapshoot today.
Name brand and off brand are made in the same factory.
Quality standards are adhered to only as long as company representatives are on location.
