If I remember correctly Airtex is what O'Reilly's carried when I worked there and the products were good and came with a lifetime warranty. Honestly, most parts anymore are made by a few manufacturers and stuck in different boxes. Names are bought and sold so much nowadays it is hard to say who makes what sometimes.

Airtex sucks ass! made in Mexico. I put 2 of them in my s-10 in 8 months, put A OEM back in it. $280 pump, no issues. Will NEVER! buy another one of them.

A pump or a sending unit? I'm just utilizing the sending unit. Did you put the pump in also cause I'm using a walboro 255 and airtex sending unit cause I don't have time to wait for a gm unit.

I bought an OEM fuel Sending Unit for $125 shipped about three months ago. I called several dealerships thought-out the nation and found a, new in the box, discounted unit. It only took a few days to arrive and was worth waiting for. Good luck.

I have a Syclone and this part number worked for me with a Walbro 255 fuel pump just fine. It was a direct replacement. Having said that, I thought you own a Syclone. Check the fit with a local GM dealership. Either ways, you might want to also replace the cam that holds the fuel sender in place, part number 22516548.

Good luck.
