Many thanks and love all your vids – but what this vid needs is more
cowbell.
No sir, thank you! :r] Have to replace the fuel pump in dad’s ’99 Suburban
K1500, probably going to cut a hatch from above. But I have a couple old
toyota 22Rs, could use some good videos in that market niche.
@briansmobile1 i think i saw a vid once of eric cook doing a tour of
airtex….pretty neat how much r&d goes into a simple fuel pump
@spazmonkey05 especially when the bolts are ruseted
Cool video,Also like the humor that goes along with it.I haven;t been a
subscriber long but i noticed in this video every once in awhile i saw red
and blue flasher lights going off.Do u have a light in your shop or was it
your buddy or something.I did read u do rescue or something? Anywho thanx
for all the video’s
Brilliant videos and great channel. 5 *****
i just got my truck its a 94 silverado xcab. will it wrk as well?
trying to get the bed off an 94 f-350 is not that easy!!!!
Great video! I have an older ’87 Chevy with the saddle tanks. Had to do
both tanks. Dropped them from the bottom..was pretty easy, two straps and
four bolts each.
You’re most welcome. I’m happy you were able to fix your problem. Way to go!
@TheTexasCoder I’ve never had an issue with that. It sounds pretty sexy to
me though.
Hey bro my 06 Silverado marks empty but when I fill up, the pump that pumps
gas stops so im thinking maybe its full but the gauge marks empty. What do
I need to replace, to fix it
They are loud.
your videos are great, the next best thing to having you do the work, but
since I’m in West Virginia, this is next best thing for me and thanks for
doing them Howard
thanks this vid will help me ALLOT
I’m going to try that next time. It would make a good video.
great video and great humour
hey brian im a big fan of your vids showed me alot and wanted to say thanks
all your vids show me exactly what to do im handicapped i was born with
cerebral palsy i only got use of my left side so im left handed and i do my
own mecanic work because of your vids when theres a will theres a way
@ndchevy You’re welcome. No county fair tickets required. ; )
Cool vid !! my next project, thanks funny guy !!
how did you know was the fuel pump,did you make a press test and a hot wire
to the pump test? to be sure is the fuel pump?
Thanks- the tank was quite full and that’s why we did it this way. This may
not be an option on a Tahoe or Suburban. (for clarity, we did not drain the
tank)
You’re welcome!
@backwoodsctryboy The filler neck will be different as are the tail lights,
but yes you can.
Thanks homie
Sweet video man i hope i never have to do that job to my 98 chevy
If there is not a frame member/bed member in the way above the tank I have
used a cut off saw to cut a nice hole in the bed to get to the fuel pump a
few times. just cut nice and even then weld tabs in the piece you cut out
so when you are done you can set it right back in and either self tap screw
it or rivet it back down. Just make sure there is zero fuel leaks if you
chose to cut a hole in the bed. 🙂
You’re welcome cuz
Hi Brian, Gr8 video !! can this be done with gas still in tank ?? I’ve
notice a few other videos that showed taking tank off and tank being
drained….Anyways ur video help me alot as i am doing this fuel pump
myself but wanted to kno if it can be done with gas still in tank ? once u
put pump in u started ur truck for a test….to me it’s like u didn’t drain
ur tank…???? Thanks for ur help n Gr8 video..
Welcome- I look forward to it.
@backwoodsctryboy He did! That was a great video that got me to switch over
to Airtex. I love that they do all the testing they do and that they’re
made in the USA
To remove the fuel sending unit that is about 33cm tall you have to remove
the bed OR remove the tank. I believe clearance is not more than 18cm.
That’s a perfectly reasonable precaution and I LIKE IT! I have heard that
before, but apparently my life is otherwise not sufficiently interesting
enough for me and I have to take dumb risks.
i work on this trucks and the best and fastest way is to take the bed off.
some hoses are hard plastic and will crack easily if you try to lower the
tank well at least on the 2500 hd models and some 3500.
Cool man, good vid!
I have a feeling you entertain yourself really, really well.
no…I’d guess he added a combustible mixture to the intake during
cranking…this confirmed the truck was starving for fuel…I’d also guess
that he listened for the pump to come on and possibly banged on the bottom
of the tank to make the pump armature move into place to make it run if it
would with the key on…
You’re welcome. You will find that most of them are loud, but they do get
much louder before they fail. I think they motor internals get loose.
how did you depressurize the system? Take the fuse out and run ’til it
dies? or other?
@jbone2470 Its a disco strobe I have in the shop.
Thanks A.J. : )
Useful video
@flukesalot YES!
Cranks cranks …won’t start…lol
