help! fuel pump died on my 1998 sidekick sport 5 door. 1.8l a/c, auto approx 14.5 gal tank i think. my soon 2 b ex-wife had use of car for a number of months and always kept tank almost empty since she mostly just ran around town. 170K miles in rusty maine roads.

i am hoping to avoid paying almost $500 for factory pump and sending unit by maybe swapping out tank and pump from a friend’s dead 1998 chev tracker. vehicles seem nearly identical except his is 5 spd and engine is configured differently on top end. are gas tanks/pump/connections identical and swappable?? i am poor! i realize this may be a risk in that his pump may not last long but rest of my car may die soon too so am willing to chance it if saves me $500 now while in throes of divorce battle. thx bob
