Default Remove PPRV, automatic V6

I've been having trouble with my car's fuel pumps. I say pumps, because something seems to be killing them so quick.. The stock one died 3 months ago... the new aftermarket dies yesterday.. Now I got another one ready to install.. Well, now that I have the tank down I'm debating wether or not remove the PPRV... I won't need the Y because it only has one hose going from the pump to the engine.. My car has an automatic transmission, would that be a problem?

Are you buying the right pump??? What kind are you getting? Why have the others blown?

Yeah, i bought them from autozone... I can't remember the exact brand of the fuel pump, but it has a big W on it...

I wanted to remove the pprv because I think thats what causing all the trouble.. I tried to blow air from one end to the other but its near impossible... same thing happens when blowing from the opposite end... Is that suppose to be like that? Its blocking the fuel passing and therefore making the pump work harder.. I didn't take the pprv out or messed with the fuel lines, so I know its installed correctly..
