fuel pump relay ticking. 88 16v (power windows)

[pearl16v at yahoo.com (david)]

the fuel pump relay in my 88 16v has been acting
erratically. it sounds like its clicking on and off
very fast, and while it's doing that it feels as if
the fuel supply to the engine is sputtering.

i replaced the relay w/ a brand new one but i'm still
have the same problems. what else could it be? fuel
pump? fuel filter?

unfortunately, a little while ago, i had an emergency
w/ the fuel pump while i was out of town, and i had no
choice but to replace the fuel pump w/ a
made-in-mexico pump. after installing the thing, my
car takes much longer to start up. could this be the culprit?
