Our SRT had a hundred miles on it last August '07 when we got it, and the fuel pump was one of several problems that needed fixing. A chech valve (or similar part) within the pump was allowing pressure to drop and causing long cranking times and hard starts. I seem to recall a few posts back then with similar hard start problems. IMO, it was the result of long term storage, not a defect. Our car sat somewhere for 35 months before we bought it. No problems in 12 months/14,000 miles on the new pump.
