I was quoted $500.00 to replace a fuel pump in my 1999 Dodge ram 4X4 quad cab with a 26 gallon fuel tank. Although it may be completely covered under my Guardian insurance plan.
Does that price sound crazy?
One other thing. For about 8 months now, my fuel gauge has not been working correctly. I found this out when I ran out of gas with 1/4 of a tank still showing on the guage. So I've been using the odometer since.
Now the fuel pump appears to have gone bad. Are the fuel guage and the fuel pump related? Would it seem plausible that the fuel guage system craps out 8 months before the fuel pump? And if I get a new fuel pump will that automatically fix the fuel guage problem?
Thanks
