Reply #2 – November 23, 2013, 10:23:36 AM Does your car have the low pressure pump in the tank and the booster pump on the frame rail near the rear of the car? If so then you will need to change the in tank pump for sure. If you already have the high pressure stand alone pump in the tank the other question you may want to ask is how old your pump is and maybe its time for some preventative maintenance rather than towing the car home at some point and changing it then.Darren Quote Selected
