Sounds dodgy but cost $10 and work great I have been using mine for years with no problems. As I am to cheap to spend $150+ on a fuel pressure gauge which I don't use much. From ripping a few external pumps apart, I have found the biggest killer of pumps to be rust. The roller bearing pumps are built with extremelly tight tolerances for obvouis purposes (force fuel through) the slightest amount of water or interfence from crap will bugger them fast.
