Replacing my fuel pump assembly as we speak...

My '03 Aero wagon was suffering the same issue. The dealer was charging a ridiculous price for the fuel pump assembly (over $600!) so I went on eBay and bought the OEM Walbro assembly for less that $300.
My gauge would do the E to F up and down for a good 50 miles or so, and then became very inaccurate as it got closer to empty. My gauge would say 1/4 full but the car would take almost 16 gallons.
It's being replaced this week, along with my front subframe bushings (which were shot on the right side. I'll report back if I have any further issues (baffle related or not), but I assume this is the usual culprit.
