Without a fuel pump, your vehicle is going nowhere. The fuel pump gets the gasoline from your fuel tank to the engine. Each make, year, and model vehicle has a specific fuel pump assembly designed to create optimal performance. When your pump dies, it’s cheaper and easier to replace just the pump, but it makes more sense to replace the entire assembly.
