If your burning out pumps that quickly then i would suggest that the problem is something to do with the wiring to them. Something like having them permently wired so its on 24/7?

Once you change the fuel pump is it ok?

Have you changed the fuel filter?

Is the fuel return plumbed in correctly?

The pumps you have mentioned will be able to supply more than enough fuel for your engine.

miles....when i change them it runs ok,the fuel filter is a new corsa item,the flow and return are plumbed in correctly and when u turn the ignition on u can hear the pump prime ,it does not run 24/7...some one suggested the plus and neg could be round the wrong way in the loom somewhere..would the pump work at all if this was the case??...cheers steve.
