fuel pumps

My rear fuel pump in my 90 f150 5.0v8 is giving me problems now. The US Motor works pump's shuttle valve is not working correctly and when running on the front tank the rear tank fills up'
This pump is on 4months old and the truck has done about 1200 miles.ARre theses pumps any good or am i just unlucky.
What is the best pump to use.
Thanks in advance.

Have you called them for assistance? If they were any good, they would offer some advice. Of course, they won't say they make junk. Even the Chinese don't do that.

Yes. Some of those pumps are not worth the cardboard box they're shipped in. I try to mentally keep track of which pumps have a high failure rate and which pumps work fine for years.
Avoid house brand fuel pumps from AutoZone, O'Reilly's, and Napa.
Folks have good success with Carter, spectra, and delphi.

I still have a few of these
They are expensive but solve the issue of cheap pumps with no good one way valves
Find a 300 dollar Ford pump NOS online somewhere, is what I do on my personal vehicles
