You're not going to want to hear this, but $120 is about as cheap as you're going to get.

My understanding is that the aftermarket pumps are rubbish, and that the only pump worth fitting is a genuine Suzuki pump. That came from someone who sold the aftermarket ones.

I have a spare genuine one I picked off a wreck to keep as a spare which might get you through until you G16B as a gamble. Message me if you need it.

Are you leaking fuel or oil?

If it's oil, just replace the gasket between the block and pump.

I've been running a suzistore pump for 2 years without a problem (not that my car gets driven that much). It did take 4 or 5 attempts to get it working though. The dowl that links the cam to the pump would slip over the top of the pump arm/lever if it wasn't put on just right.
