If it starting up with no problems and not dying out within 15mins of running time I believe its still good or you can check the fuel pressure to verify if its producing the correct fuel pressure with a fuel pressure gauge. Watch your back pocket, be extra careful who you dealing with. Get a 2nd opinion
