Not yet. I've lost confidence in the shop owner's ability to diagnose the problem. He never showed up yesterday but he still feels that the pump is good. I've driven a total of 230 miles since the fuel pump was installed intersperced by tows every second day after he gives it back to me running. The truck shakes and loses power leaving me stranded. So he wants to rule out the fuel pump and the rear tank and now wants to concentrate on the FPR. His mechanic who installed the fuel pump (who quit after my job) did replace the o-ring by the return screen and I believe he disassembled and cleaned the FPR, but this mechanic has left town so asking him what he did is impossible. He thinks that a fuel return restriction will created the vacuum in the fuel bowl, which is what I see. The bowl once opened is only 1/5th full of fuel. Sure I can have my truck towed elsewhere but he's in to me for so much money at this point that these service calls to my house are now free. If he wasn't the nicest guy and treats me very well (he loaned me his shop truck while I'm down) I'd go elsewhere but I'm not ready to pay double for this job. He promised me yesterday that he'll have her running today, but I'm extremely doubtful. I've lost confidence in my fuel delivery system and for the first time I'm ready to drive the truck off a cliff . Incompetent mechanics make me angry and frustrated.
