no, replace the main pump last, you want to try the cheap easy things first and work your way up to the expensive things ;)

replacing inner (lift) pump is simple. Remove rear bench and carpet above reservoir, then remove black round metal cap holding on three screws. Then remove 2 hoses and pull out plastic casing at whitch lower end is pump.

BTW> Common reason(s) for pump fault is driving on low ammount of fuel. First, then pump grabs more rubbish from bottom of reservoir (even there is a micro filter) and more important.....pump is supposed to be in fuel for whole time because fuel cools it. If that's not so, pump overheats and there you go in trouble.
