Not to hi-jack, but my '02 4 liter Jeep GC fuel pump seems to be getting louder the more I drive lately. Jeep runs fine. it has roughly 178k on it now (pump is original untouched)....should I think about replacing it now before it dies? I also saw on the link for Rock Auto, that the Delphi unit is the "premium" brand...consensus is to get the delphi part?
If you're POSITIVE that your pump is getting louder, yep...at 178,000 miles aand 20 years of service,
(I would) go ahead and replace it. I mean, you can't predict when or where it's going to die, and replacing it in the driveway is always preferable to getting it towed or swapping somewhere across town.
