Are you sure the problem is the fuel pump? I have been struggling with intermittent failure to start for several months now - the car cranks but won't catch, but I can hear the pump surge. If I let the car sit for an hour or two, it starts right up - sounded like a sticking relay to me and, therefore, at the suggestion of Quasi and others, I've replaced the two relays in the fule circuits (one for pump, one for FI) and checked for local contact corrosion: still have the problem. Can't tell if the fuel pump is bad, but I can hear it surge - I'll try kicking the fuel tank next time - an interesting "check". Also, Quasi mentioned the possibility of a corroded contact in the "aquarium" which I'll check out this weekend.
Do these symptoms ring a bell for you?
