Am I seeing a sign of impending fuel pump death (Regina single pump)? 900 1993

You can get a replacement for $105 plus shipping from fcpgroton (fcpgroton.com). You will also need the filter sock, just a few bucks.

Read the faqs, it really helps. I just changed my daughters last weekend with 150K miles. They are good for about 155K to 175K, at least that is my experience. I have changed three and the problems I had were getting the ring off the neck of the fuel tank. Very important is to mark the ring's relation to the tank and the lid the ring secures (I used whiteout, typing type). This will make sure everything goes together and that the ring isn't overtightened and broken. I used a 1 X 2 to pry the little protrusions on the ring by leveraging it between the protrusions and the side of the car's metal opening to the pump. Another frustrating problem is getting the pump out and in. It will go, but for putting it in, make sure the cotton string or whatever collapses the spring part (you'll see it when you get it out).

I have read that the wagons are easier, but don't know firsthand.

I agree with the other post i.e. you are long overdue in replacing the pump.
