Yes, replace the pump. And as far as it being a bad job, I can have an opti in my hand in less then 1 hour. Its not bad at all. Here's some pics from when I popped my opti cherry

100% replace it cause if your 80k pump goes bad and leaks onto your new opti you will be very unhappy may still run but over time will go bad. they should not charge for a new pump labor anyways. for 150 extra great insurance, elec pump is good for weekend worrier but daily car stay with stock type

I have a buddy with about 40k on his Summit Racing unit. I just installed my summit Racing unit. It was easy and works good. Nice thing is it comes with wiring.
