Is a worn fuel pump causing my engine to die??

[dmc12@xxxx]

Hi all,

When my car reaches a good temperature after a 1/2 hour drive on a 
warm day the fuel pump starts getting loud and the car dies if I put 
my foot to the floor. I took it to my local garage and the chap who 
normally works on my car said it was most likely a weak fuel pump 
that is probably likely to die in the near future.
He told me he had recently had the same problem with a customer's 
Porsche and it turned out to be a worn fuel pump, can anyone on the 
list backup his fuel pump theory just for peace of mind.


Many Thanks
