Out of the box failures of new fuel pumps are common enough that I *never* recommend replacing the factory pump as a preventative measure (as some folks seem inclined to want to do).

I keyed it about fifty times and it started working again. How long I don't know ...luckily thermo valve a changed and my idle problem is gone

3 parts in a row like this is why I stopped buying parts at Oreilly's or Autozone.
Mine failed right out of the box. Is that where you bought this?
NAPA or dealer for reliable parts ever since.

Can't remember but have you changed BOTH fuel filters?
