I'm not a mechanic, just a driver, and I have to get the fuel pump replaced.

My mechanic is telling me a total of $500 to do it ($250 for the pump, and $250 for the labor).


It seems pretty expensive to me, though he's told me that since this is an electrical pump, and inside the gas tank, it requires a lot more work.


What do you guys think?


Is there a cheaper way to do this, or does this sound about right?


thanks for your help
