This one is a toss-up without actually seeing the video however:

The technician replaced the fuel pump as per the tsb. After replacing the part, I would fully expect the technician to test it out at full load and through the powerband because this is what I do after a new pump is thrown in. I wouldnt expect him to keep it pegged at the limiter or anything, but enough to be confident that the fuel pump is correctly installed and working.

2. The tsb should include after install test procedures which probably do not tell the technician to floor it on the public roads from stop light to stop light.

The technician probably milked the opportunity a bit. But its up to you if you feel like it was excessive and beyond that of reasonable testing.
