What are the symptoms? When you turn the car key to the on position, do you hear the pump run for a few seconds?
Have you had your Relay Control Module refurbished or replaced? Your fuel pump relay is located in the RCM. They are going bad because of age. You can get a new one from amazon, or have tighed1 refurbish it for about 60 bucks.
Also, what brand of fuel pump is your mechanic using? Bosch or Pierburg are the most reliable.
More information would be helpful.


This the RCM

This is the RCM I carry as a spare in my trunk. I had my original refurbished by tighed1. You can get a new one on ama zon.
