I'd go with Bosch. A fuel pump isn't something I'd want to cheap out on and I'll have to get the OEM for something like that.
Bosch. Always use Bosch for the pump. They're the OEM and the vastly better service life than the cheap brands is more than worth the extra cost.
From what I’ve seen on here, the consensus is that the Bosch fuel pump is the only one that won’t die immediately
Hopefully I can get some more years out of this Bosch.
044's are awesome pumps, and rarely quit
044 can take A LOT of abuse. They are OEM spec
I reset the timing to 1.0mm left every else as is, and accually got the cold start lever hooked up properly with a spair part from another pump i had laying around
The car doesn't like to start as quickly as it did with the two pump setup. As the car gets hotter and I do a few restarts while running errands the car is even harder to start. Yesterday resulted in me being stranded in my kid's daycare parking lot for about 5 minutes before it eventually started up again. The pump still fires like it should in the acc position and the car otherwise runs fine which tells me the fuel pump is doing its job.
I went through 4 Airtex pumps in about 1.5 years in my car. I seriously thought there was a problem with my tank or fuel but it was clean as a whistle in there. Finally upgraded to a Walbro and haven't had an issue since.
After wiring the fuel pump relay terminals together to bypass the relay entirely, after 40 miles of heading back towards Arkansas it died on me again with the exact same behavior as before.
