The part of your question, "...just like the old one I replaced..." indicates that the defect [problem] was/is SOMETHING/SOMEWHERE ELSE. There was nothing wrong with the first fuel pump. Also, the part of your question, "...somedays it works and somedays it won't..." suggests a loose or bad connection which sometimes makes good contact, and sometimes does not, thereby providing electrical current to the fuel pump intermittantly. Causes for this issue are most often related to a poor ground [usually CORROSION], or corrosion between the contacts within a connector somewhere in the circuit. Find, disassemble, clean, lubricate, and reconnect all connections of all types in the fuel pump circuit, and the problem will probably go away. Also, IF there is an electrical relay in the fuel pump circuit, it could be defective. j3h.

What was said above is correct but also replace the main relay. They are somewhat susceptible to going bad in the Honda cars and are both cheap and easy to replace. Any manual for the car should have details on where it is. And it shouldn't be more than a few dollars.

What could be the problem on a 1993 Honda Civic VX If the speedometer odometer intermittently works and you have replaced the speed sensor on the transmission?

The cable that controls the speedometer needs to be replaced more than likely. That is what had to be done to a Dodge Stealth's speedometer to work properly. ==New Answer == Actually - there is no speedometer/odometer cable on a 1993 Honda. The system is all-electrical. So it has to be either a bad wiring harness/plug connector, OR a bad speedometer head (unlikely).
