am i getting ripped off????
99 f250 5.4
went to meineke and they say my feul pump is shot....also has to replace a few feul lines and straps....wants 1000 bucks.....
is it even the feul pump....pressures low...truck has been running bad last few days...when u go to accelerate it doesnt go....and it gets worse as the truck gets warm....but i dropped it off for them to diagnose it....and when i picked it up it runs fine now...also it looks like they might have had the tank down cuz there are a few new bolts on there....?

Try to always get a second or even third opinion... I had a '98 Z71 GMC before I got this truck. The GMC dealer told me that I needed a starter at 100,000 miles and I was still using it when I sold the truck at 220,000 miles. Took it to Mikinie(sp) one time to get something repaired, forget what, and left there with a shopping list of thing that they said it needed and never got any of those things done.
I've only had this truck for 4 or 5 months and absolutely love it. It's the 1st deisiel I've ever owned so the only problem so far is finding a good shop to take it to whenever I do need work done. I'm not big on dealers although I may have no choice.
