Some fuel pumps last the life of the car and some go before any other part dies on your car. It depends on how you maintain it. The fuel pump is just like other vital parts, must be kept clean, cool, and well fed. How do you do this...Use fresh fuel as often as you can(a station that gets a lot of business and always filling their fuel tanks with fresh fuel), use a name brand gas station and or a very reputable one bc they'll have good additives that'll take care of your fuel system(Chevron, Shell, etc.), keep gas in your tank and never let it go empty actually no where near empty bc now your fuel pump would have to work harder and its not being properly cooled, use Royal purple Max fuel clean/Chevron Techron, etc. additives which will keep your fuel from going stale if sitting to long and it'll keep the whole system clean when in use, avoid short trips all the time but if that's all you have to do then every now and then just take a nice lil drive to get that fuel pump a lil work out while knocking off some of the carbon build up bc the last thing a motor wants is not to be driven. I could keep going but if these are things you've been doing and it turns out to be the fuel pump anyway then just continue to practice these steps on your new fuel pump and it'll last you another 100k miles or more
