Fuel Pump Needs Replacement? Please Help... This Is Going To Hurt The Wallet
Ok so I believe I ran out of gas today and when we put 2 gallons of gas in my 01 the car started. I drove about 10 feet and it stalled. We put another gallon in and it wouldn't start. We put another 5 gallons in and it wouldn't start. It kept sounding like it would almost start. So the AAA guy said maybe it was flooded. We had it towed to my neighhorhood service station and they said I have to replace the fuel pump. This isn't going to be cheap and a few people I've been asking have asked if I'm positive it's the fuel pump. I have no idea... any thoughts? Thanks!

put your ear above pump then have someone turn key-no noise = new pump

not cheap and make sure the tech knows what he is doing and follows the proceedure exactly to the letter or all hell will break loose-suggest this may be a dealership repair.
Email me if proceedure required.
Here is a pick of the pump unit.
Somewhere on here someone managed to use a nissan v8 pump and fitted it to this unit
