Slim chance you get the dealer to install after market parts. We wont even install off brand wheels for a customer.


how handy are you yourself?

I see that Delphi has a part number as well FHP10036. Are they any better than AC Delco?

Asking because another problem I had with the "new" fuel pumps are that the gas gauge reads between 3/4 and F when the tank is full.

That's the fuel sender not the fuel pump that is causing that

Pretty sure all the replacements come with the whole assembly.

Yea, don't hack up your car to save some time now.

You sound like you have a very nicely kept OEM car, so don't ruin that.

I'm aware the sender is why I have fuel gauge issues. The problem is.....it comes with the whole assembly so when the dealer replaces the pump, the sender unit goes with it too.

Hopefully I have better luck with the next pump they install...

I swapped a Delphi unit in last fall, I haven't had a problem. Got it off rockauto. I was having long crank times, thought it was from the airtex that was installed, but after resealing the manifold it seems to have solved that issue.

Finally got the car back.....WOW!!!

I immediately noticed crisper throttle response! Seems to have resolved the issues i took it in for. Still got an inaccurate gas gauge even with the new pump assembly (full tank reading between 3/4 and F, sometimes just below 3/4 with heavier braking, sometimes reads F when accelerating...probably fuel sloshing around). I questioned the dealer they say its normal (not sure if I agree since it hasn't happened with the original pump, just the replacements).

Hopefully the pump will last longer than the previous.
