replace fuel pump????

Hey everyone!! I have a 1993 G.V. 3.3 with just under 180,000 had 132,000 when purchased. Will be driving to Cincy, (about 1100 each way) at xmas. Should I replace the fuel pump before I leave. Would hate to break downwhile on vacation. Had a 94 e150 and the fuel pump went out at around 165,000. So what do you all think. Thanks.

There is no real way to answer that . It could last another 50000 miles or it could break tomorrow . You have gotten good life out of it . If you are real worried about it then invest the $300 to have it replaced and drive with peace of mind.

I'd have to agree with ViperGG for the most part. There is no way of knowing.

My GV quit at 175k I managed to limp it home the 27 miles but had to be pushed the last 2.

If it were me going that far I just rent a car or suv for the trip. Something that I would consider buying when it's time to put the GV to rest.

If you do break down the rental co would get a replacement for you to carry on with your trip and in the end your GV would be at home waiting your return.

Thanks guy's for the replies. I know you can't give an exact mileage as to when a fuel pump will go out. I was just looking for some general consesus as to how long the generaly last. As far as the van in general everything is good and I think I won't have a problem with engine/tranny.
