how long should a fuel pump last?

Great, it's 91* w/humidity to match, & I gotta check since I haven't been under in awhile/ can't remember. And for my own curiousity.
Agreed 100%.

what is funny is my 01 has the servicable fuel filter and the one in the tank. I would actually get rid of the one on the rail, as last time i replaced it i could not get it to seal.

I don't know why GM took the inline fuel filter off in 04. It's cheap insurance. The fuel helps keep your fuel pump cool which extends the life of the pump so don't let your tank get empty.

Keep the one on the rail. The filter in the tank is just to keep bigger chunks from damaging the pump on the pre '04. The filter on the rail is a lower micron and designed to keep smaller bits from clogging up the injectors AFAIK.
