Default Fuel Pump Issues. time to change it?

normally can hear my fuel pump kick on and then off at normal startup. But lately I can hear it running all of the time. Even at highway speeds with top off and hatch vent open.

Time for a change before it strands me or just normal for cooler temps??

I've seen noisy fuel pumps last forever, and others take a dump in a day.

If there is no fuel delivery problems, it's up to you, dude. :thumbs:

Yep... he is right. but as far as I am concerned, with the ease of replacement, it ain't worth the risk of the pump taking a dump on you...
