    Hello. I just spent $150.00 to have my fuel filter replaced. The next
    day, the van continued to stall and now I'm told I need to replace the
    fuel pump?

    Any way around this? Any suggestions...?

    Thanks,

    DW

    If it is bad it will need replaced.
    But needs proper testing to see if it is bad.
    Start with a fuel pressure test and post back pressure reading.
    Any check engine lights?
    What engine and mileage?

    Well first of all if you spent that much money to replace the filter I would
    not have the same people replace the pump. I don't think the fuel pump is
    going to make your vehicle stall. If they do replace it for that reason you
    had better make sure they guarantee the repair. Since we don't know the
    engine size...it would be hard to tell what the problem could be. If its a 6
    cyl you make just need to have the throttle body cleaned

    Why? That's a 10 minute job and a 15 dollar part.

    Around what?

    Suggest you find out why your van is stalling. And your Bonneville,
    too, for that matter.

    Not on that van ... the filter is about twice that price at a auto parts
    store (dealer would be even more I am sure). And sometimes requires
    loosening the gas tank to drop it a couple inches to get at the filter.
    Your point is still valid that it should not have cost $150, but it is a bit
    more than you make it out to be as well.
