Default 1997 dodge intrepid fuel pump problems

Fuel pump went out. Dealer said it would cost $800 to replace ($400 part/$400 labor). Not sure I want to lay down that much cash.

I am somewhat mechanically inclined but I am not sure if I should attempt this.

Anyone ever done this? If so, do you have instructions?

Can anyone recommend a fuel pump to buy?

Thanks in advance

they are the easiest fuel pumps to change. just open the trunk, pull back the carpet behind the seat, get a 10mm socket, remove plate, disconnect fuel lines and wire plug in, take a flat blade screwdriver and unscrew a big hose clamp. pull pump straight out.

Go to the JY and get a used one (90% chance it's good) or go to ANY auto parts store

see what going JY rates are at www.car-part.com
