Original new is better, but I guess tokunbo too will get the job done if it is in quality condition

im very sorry sir

im a novice tooand was trying to determine who should change it by simple elimination purpose

if both of them did the scan/fuel pump pressure test,then both of them should change it

that way,both of them can be held responsible

Most ageing vehicle tokunbo parts are just damaged recycled parts that's why I always advocate the technician to buy the parts even if he will fleece you.

Now a fuel pump pumps fuel and has another pipe that sends fuel back to the unit, there are things the technician looks out for and the seller too has a crude way of testing the unit (I have only seen the alternator own). How they test it I have not seen physically. There are some car parts that 95% of it is tokunbo in Nigeria spare parts market to get brand new, you have to walk the walk or order online (compressor, kick starter, alternator).

none of your business, just take it to the repair shop get an invoice, pay for the service wait and get your vehicle at te required time.

OR


DO IT YOUR SELF

Nothing destroys new fuel pumps like the combination of a new fuel pump and a constricted fuel filter, hence I would advise to save up and buy the complete fuel pump assembly and going forward refuel at 1/4 tank to allow the new pump last as long as it was designed.

Adopt the above recommendation
