Sound's like fuel sender even more so since you said it goes crazy when you excellerate. But I would test it just to be sure you can hook up a ohms meter to the sender and move the float arm in differnt postion's. You can find a bad spot in the sender that way. Also they do sell the sender seperatey from the fuel pump try a website called rockauto. Com they have the ac delco one for like 200 and a aftermarket one for like 50 something.
