A caveat emptor to those who, like myself, have purchased any of the cheap blue unmarked Chinese electric fuel pumps which are available from a myriad of vendors.
I put one in my '87 X just a couple of months and maybe a thousand miles ago, and the other day I noticed it had gotten very noisy so I removed it over the weekend and threw it in the trash. Replaced it with a spare German-made OEM Bosch (much used but still working fine).
Sure, $20 for a new electric fuel pump is a heck of a deal, but sometimes you get what you pay for
I also put one of the Chinese Blue Bargains in my '87 Alfa Milano over the winter when I was restoring the car, and so far that pump is OK after about 4 months and 3K miles. But I'm keeping a spare in the trunk at all times.......
