Default Fuel Pump Issue

Hi Y'all.
I have an issue I'd like to run by all of you. It seems like I have a fuel pump down...it's the one in my front tank. To clarify, I have the 1993 I-6 with dual tanks. I replaced the tank selector switch and no change...still bogged down when I changed over to the front tank. I'm thinking that since I'll be working on the tank anyway I might as well replace it. I seem to have read somewhere that there are places that sell the entire tank/pump, fuel sender, etc. assemblies. If so, would any of you be able to direct me to a resource. Thanks.
Rich

Get the combo. I just bought a pump/tank combo from Rockauto for my 96, It was a little bit cheaper than Autozone. Other than probems getting a fuel ine unhooked from the old tank it was a pretty easy job to drop the old on and hook up the new one by myself.

Make sure to be specific on that pump. pre 95 I6's run at 45 to 60 psi. (V-8's and 95 96 I6 are only 30 to 45). Just thought I'd mention that.

Don't by one from autozone is all I have to say, never trust a duralast part. Rockauto is usually the place to go, you may even take their part # and search amazon for it to see if someone caries that and offers free shipping.

I completely eliminated the front tank on mine because it was completely rotted. I just run the rear tank
