Fuel pump on my 97 keeps going bad?

[car23]

My fuel pump on top of the motor has went out 3 times in three years ? I'll replace it and the hoses and it will dry up. In about 6 months it will have start showing some leakage ? Is there a filter on the return line on going back to the tank ? Could it not be relieving properly? Motor runs fine and i have been using carter pumps . NEED A LITTLE ADVICE . THANKS ,GREG

You can go to "Team Ford on the web or "genuine Ford parts" and save a few buck on original ford parts. I bought mine (for a 95 model) from "Genuine Ford Parts" on a google search and It's part number was F6TZ-9350-A The List Price was $145.80 and they sold it for $109.35 It had $8.95 freight to ship it. I hope this helps. Ther may have been a price increase since I bought mine, "everthing else has gone up" ( purchased in march of 2006)
