Ive got one pump thats getting weak, clearances opening up, looseing prim, I hav eto turn the key on 5-9 times to get the presure up so i dont stress the starater, These are 2001 the old design that had the problems with glue coming loose in the windings and putting trash all the the system, they have been rebuilt,updated years back,something is going on now, I tried contacting areomotive and they want respond, the new price is around 330. now

If the voltage was down I would think it would show up as not pumping enough when running,
I looked in the pump inlet and didn't see a screen
I have a spare ive been using as a transfer pump,prob swap out see if theirs a difference/
ALSO I added a inline filter just incase the pumps puke again and to protect the injectors. maybe this is causing a problem
The best I can remember around 2003-05 they charger around 175.00 to rebuild their first poor designed pump,i guess I ll call them next week see whats up again.

I have had the same pump get weak on me but this was only in a Toyota Supra years back.
Aero said it was due to ethanol in the fuel I was running. I sent it back to them for the "update" that is ethanol friendly, and rebuild. IIRC it was $170 or so. I ended up parting out the car and buying My Baja. But I know the older model A1000 pumps did not like ethanol. That was my experience with that pump. Hope this helps.
Side not: DAM was that on loud ass pump!!!!!
