Going to replace original fuel pumps after cleaning out both tanks. Any suggestions on where to buy them from? Are some better than others?

Thanks

 

As long as you can find a motorcraft id say anywhere is a good place to buy.
I had the original fail at 170xxx miles put in an airtex from orielly and it crapped out in 30000 miles. Put in a used motorcraft and it is still going 100k later.

 

Use oem,go on line and search oem ford parts theres alot of ford dealers that have better prices than your local dealer so look around they ain't cheap

 

I put an Airtex in the rear of an '87 F150 and the fuel gauge never read correctly after that.

For '90+ (single in-tank pump) I actually don't know if they still sell it as JUST the pump and white plastic enclosure where you have to pry it off the hard lines? Or are they sold as complete modules with sender these days? Whenever I did them it was the former, I always hated wrestling it off the seemingly fragile hard lines

 

Maybe not an issue in MS, but up here in the land of rust, anytime I have to take the tank out for a pump, sender or whatever, I put in a new tank as well. Of course, unless it is virtually new already! LOL

 

Most tanks can look great on the outside, but inside, condensation settling out + trash can eat it inside out.

Tank walls looked the same.
