Old pump ran for a second when you took the pine wrench to it. That was probably the event that took out the fuse. Pump was bad and your work was not in vain. Good job. Lesser channels would never have shown a “failure”. You have a great channel because of your candor and honesty. We are still including Meg in our nightly prayers. I’m glad to see she is doing better. Getting older is difficult, but the alternative is worse.

I read that fueling up can sometimes be what causes them to fail, the scenario i read was you are on a long trip, run the tank real low and then fill up. Something like the fuel is a little bit of a coolant for the pump and it gets hot when really low, then shocked with fresh cool fuel dumped in right after stopping causes a failure

I had a 92 Nissan 240 with what I believed to be a faulty fuel pump. I was stuck in a parking lot with a few tools in the back. Luckily I had a testlight. I decided to check the fuel pump fuse. Sure enough it was blown. I swapped another fuse and she fired up. Yes I was worried the fuse was going to blow again. Well I drove it for years after that and no problems. It's proof to me that fuses do just wear out. I eventually sold the car and it was still running years later. The main lesson I learned was to always check your powers and grounds. Thanks for another great Video Kenny!

Some trucks you can unbolt one side of the bed and partially unbolt the other side, then jack up the bed to make room to get to the top of the tank. It can be faster, safer, and easier than dropping the tank. I wish every truck had an access hatch in the bed, but they don't care about us.

Zip ties, greatest thing since sliced bread. Makes great plug wire separators too for my `91 Silverado. 33 year old plastic breaks if you look at it wrong.🤣 Had that issue when I replaced the pump assembly in my truck, but I was going to replace those pigtails anyway. Used marine shrink tube and uninsulated crimp connectors for my splice. No more tank issue, but I found out the gas gauge in the dash is done. I`m 66 and still wrenching on my own junk. Next project will be wiring a complete Digital cluster in the old girl. The old "moonie" gauges are dying one at a time, oil pressure gauge took a dump, has old school one for now. New cluster will fix them all.😁 Keep wrenching!

I found using your ampmeter after removing the fuel pump relay Across the load side 30 & 87 NOT the switching side 85 & 86 as you could damage the ecu Usually 4 to 7 amp's pump is good 10 to 15 amp's or more suspect blockage. 1to 2 amp's out of fuel or major fuel leak. But hitting the tank is a good simple method. Hitting starters can sometimes get you out of trouble also as long as you can locate them on the modern cars. A long bar and hammer is all that is required. As long as you don't touch the main battery terminal 😮

Good day brother Kenny, you are 100% right when you said 'this is a dirty job'. I have done this job before on a different vehicle. It is not easy to close your eyes to avoid getting dirt in them but I too don't look forward to doing it right by wearing safety glasses. When you are old school like us and have had experience doing this job, you sometimes bend the official safety rules. After you removed the pump retaining ring and mute the microphone to blow the top of the pump off I was thinking what if all of that debris got into the fuel tank.That would make some mess and potentially plug up the filter and pump but could even cause the new pump to burn out as it is trying to pass solid material where only gasoline is supposed to be flowing. Hey Kenny, I love seeing applications of "lube-a-dube". It sounds kinky but we get the point. I am surprised that you don't have the tool that helps you remove that retaining ring and even to put back on. When you were putting it back on, I'll bet you were thinking 'now why didn't I get the darn tool?' That damn # 17 fuse!! Have a good day and 'Keep Wrenching'. Kenny, I think that you deserve a new Ram truck, or newer truck at least.

Great video. I've a Quashqai petrol with hesitation under acceleration. Got a second hand fuel sender unit. I was pissed to find that you cannot just replace or clean a filter or a pump motor - that it is all plastic moulded into a unit like in this vid. Easy to change (the 'locking ring' was a PITA) but painfully expensive. Fortunately top of the tank is exposed through a panel under the rear seat. The filter was clogged with very fine silt from the fuel, replacement unit was better, problem solved. There was nothing wrong with the pump, float, electrics etc. - What a waste, for the sake of an non replaceable filter pad. I have dropped tanks on other cars (on a drive-way), *much* easier to drain as much as possible into jerry cans first.

I have a 2002 Dodge Ram 1500,4.7, with over 154,000 miles on it. I keep it excellent repair and maintained. What I don’t/can’t do, I have a fantastic mechanic who does. But I am not looking forward to the fuel pump replacement when that time comes. I’m willing to bet I’ll have a full tank of gas when it happens, and 26 gallons isn’t something to play around with. So it will certainly go to my mechanic and his crew. I’ve watched to process to drop the tank, deal with all the hoses and stuff, and wonder why, Dodge just didn’t put an opening in the bed you could remove to replace the pump? Was that too simple for design engineers to do? Or maybe they were too lazy. Maybe if these engineers and designers were forced to work on the vehicles they design we would have it much easier.

Those metal retainer rings are like the same thing they use on brake rotors at the assembly line so they don't fall off while the vehicle is going down the assembly line if they are still on the rotors it's the first time they have been changed some of the connectors they have are a pain in the ass and there are so many different types it doesn't make sense why they need all of them.
