    FPR Prices are through the roof!

    Has anyone needed to change their FPR lately?

    13531711540

    Its back ordered most places and ranges from nearly $300 to well over $450 online.

    I remember getting a Bosch one for under $50 many years ago.

    Maybe I am just looking in the wrong places?

    I keep getting a screw on type from local Advance and Napa.

    Check this out.Am I missing something?? FPR?? For a 1985 car on Parts Geek $35 generic Beck Arnley Approx $60 Bosch $145. I bought my Bosch there, as that is the best they were selling at the time, for my '81 Motronic basic, about 8 years ago, for $52 and it works fine . As you can see prices have gone up. But you guys are looking in the wrong places. On top of that Parts geek carries Pierburgh for less than Bosch and to me Pierburgh is way ahead of Bosch in quality.I am running Pierburgh for my primary fuel pump.

    Hi Dave. Yes it has been a long while. Do Parts Geek. Just make sure they have it. With the variety they offer I am sure they do. One month one guy is cheap on something the next month it's someone else with a different item. But i've literally stolen some name brand stuff from the Geek, and their service is good.
