Our shop mechanics were tired of putting $800.00 fuel pumps in our service vehicle. From what I heard was that,they found a matching pump that produced the same pressure and installed that in the tank ( cost aprox. $40.00 ) There are always alternatives to every problem (or can of worms) But the real question is " is it worth my time and effort " For some of us who have the time, why not experiment. Look into some of the British or European cars, they usually had an inline pump as opposed to an In the tank.
