My 3.2 liter V6 Rodeo, has blown 2 fuel pump relays and and about 10 fuel pump fuses in the last 5 days. I am pretty sure it is a failing fuel pump. I just wanted to ask if there may be anything else I should check before I shell out the 250.00 for a new pump. Thanks for your info.

Honestly, I have to agree with you. It sounds like the pump is drawing too much power.

Check the fuel pump wiring and grounding circuit and ensure they are good, if yes, I wuold agree that the fuel pump is due for replacement.
