Fuel Pump - Rt/10

[JAFCOJIM]

The car is a 2001 RT/10 with 44,000 miles.
I'm on my second fuel pump in a little over one month.
In both cases, the car died after only 61 miles, with a full tank of gas and after 116 miles on the replacement, after one refill and 21 miles on a full tank of gas.
Any suggestions or, as the AAA guy suggested, I make routine appointments for them to wait to haul me.
One of the fuel pumps my mechanic ordered, didn't even work right outta the box.
HELP, PLEASE.

Someone is doing something wrong.

Are you replacing the entire intank fuel pump assembly?

I assume you are getting power to pump. Not a bad relay?

 

[vipertech]

did we check the fuel pump relay

If it's not a complete assy., the hose from the pump prolly fell off. There is no correct part # to replace just the pump. It can be done, I've done it. But,,,,,, if yer mechanic is not overly resourceful, it'll fail. Period.
