Was going to cut a hole in my bed until I saw this video. I had the advantage of having a tractor with a front end loader to lift the drivers side of the bed, but the process was much easier than I had anticipated. Other than one of the fuel line clips being damaged, and having to run around town to find replacement clips (Napa), it took less than 2 hours. THANKS!!!

Great video. I don't have many tools like a lift or even a jack and you explained how to complete this task without those items which is great. I have what I think is an intermittent fuel pump on my 2000 Sierra, and after watching I feel a little more confident about doing it myself instead of paying the $600-$800 my mechanic wants to do the job. If I decide to do it myself I will report back if I'm successful. Once again, great video. Glad to have guys like you on KZfaq.

@alafrosty 6 ай бұрын

The trick to those fuel line connectors in the middle is to squeeze the flat sections on the end of the plastic. If they haven't become too brittle and break, then the plastic will deform in the right direction and far enough to just pull the lines off the pump. They're super-easy! Terrific video. Very well described with clear instructions. I liked the close-ups and I would've also appreciated a few more "big picture" shots, but that probably would've required running two cameras. Really good job on what you did.
