the correction to the cost is about 560 including 100 towing, 4x 80 per hr labor, 145 for fuel pump and 40 diagnostic. there is 50 that i cannot accounted for . can you work with this. i'm concerned about the pump price and the labor cost

The labor is not out of line as the rear axle assembly needs to be removed to get the tank out.The pump price is insane in my opinion.I can buy the pump for $48 so if they mark it up 200% it would only be $96.Normal markup is 40% on most parts and that would be $67.They are probably marking up the towing also so it would save you more money to arrange for your own towing.If you already know it needs a pump and that's all you want done I don't know where the $40 for diagnostics is coming from because they don't need to do any.If I add up my version with the $100 for towing I get $553.If I add up there version I get $605.i don't know how they did there math but if they are willing to do it at $560 or $530 (your first statement)they are not off by much.Maybe they included a fuel filter.I didn't include diagnostics in my price either.
