I would switch to a different brand of fuel pump.
That, and a different mechanic!
As stated above, check wires, replace both the sock and the pump along with the fuel filter. These items are relatively easy installs and only cost about $50 altogether. For another $25 you can get a pressure regulator (good call reconmike!) and eliminate any restrictions. Before installing, sit the pump in a pot of gas for 10 minutes so it can "prime" itself and NEVER let the tank get below 1/4 full. Inspect the tank and old sock too! Could be crud in the bottom of the tank.
Keep us posted!
