Honestly, this mechanic is not trying to screw me. He's a family friend and he is already trying to give me a discount. The $700 includes a $300 pump, the $150 diagnostic he just did, and the labour, so it's not that ridiculous IMO.

I'm just thinking maybe I should get something newer and more reliable.
I guess if you can afford it, go for it. I drive a '97 Jeep and I just put a grand into it this summer and I considered that perfectly fine, I bought it for $4K 4 years ago and other than tires and regular maintenance this is the first serious cash I've had to invest.
