I'm 62 years old and you remind me of my dad working on vehicles taking this apart and that apart putting it all back together I enjoyed your video God bless you from south Mississippi

This knowledge is so valuable for those of us that may not have the funds to take it to a mechanic but have the funds to fix it ourselves. Thank you so much,stay rad!

Thanks for another good offering. While I highly doubt that I'll ever do this, it was enjoyable to learn.

Thanks for showing us how to install a new gas tank.

Another great video. Im no mechanic but this helps me know how much time a job may take.

Too intricate for me to actual tackle this operation, but... seeing how it is all connected and the working mechanisms was really interesting to see. Thanks, Aloha

Hi David! Always a pleasure to watch your videos on both of your channels. it's very good entertaining.

This video was awesome!!! You are a great teacher and explain things really well. I have a car that’s been sitting for a couple years- wanting to restore and get her road ready and worthy, change tires, oil. coolant, plugs, cap, rotor, brakes, fuel pump and that fuel tank I know has got to be full of crude, bad fuel, and rust- just sitting there over the years not even worth cleaning- might as well just get a fresh clean fuel tank. Love this video- job well done!

Thanks for another great video. One thing I have never done is dropping a truck fuel tank . You made it look pretty easy. Nice Job👍

Oh the days when vehicles were easy to work on, unlike what we have today...nice job.

Thanks for another Great video Dave.💙👍👍🛠🔧

A clip of one of your videos was recently featured on an app called iFunny. The one about priorities and buying land. It was very nice to see your message being spread further than youtube!

Good job ! I changed mine on my 99 f150 last summer. I think if I ever need to do it again, I'll either have it done, or scrap the truck ! Cheers !!

The only thing I see that you failed to mention is to make sure that your tank is completely full.... It makes for a more interesting job!.. As always great video. God bless!

Great tutorial! Can I make one suggestion though? Add heat shrink tubing to the crimp connectors inside the tank. Sometimes crimping will cut the insulation. If that happens on + and - side, could cause a spark. VERY bad thing to have occur inside the tank. Thanks for another great video and thanks for sharing the knowledge!

I rebuilt a tank using a bunch of JB Weld on a jeep years back. Had made my own straps as well do to the price of them at the time. I ended up using some fencing turnbuckles for the one side of them. Saved 80 bucks a strap.

Loved this video, Dave! Although I don’t do my own work on my car, it’s sure educational watching your tutorials. It cost me $2400 to replace a fuel pump in my 2005 Corvette, ouch!

Great tutorial on fuel system maintenance! Always a wise idea to just replace the in-tank fuel pump/sender assembly if the tank has to be dropped for any reason, and try to drain all the fuel before removal, so much easier!

Hoppes no 9: the Gentleman's Oil. I knew I liked you for a reason!

I have only owned and used diesel powered vehicles since 1977, and I have never had to change out a diesel tank in that time. As diesel is an oil they sure seem to outlast petrol ones. I have a petrol powered friend whose Range Rover is now on its third tank in 13 years. I convinced they rust a lot quicker with lead free and ethanol fuel. Anyways Dave, "tanks" for another great instructional video, they are always a welcome watch. David in the UK.

Thanks Dave! I have never done a gas tank change. Great video.

You make these jobs look easy! Great channel for working on any type of vehicle. Thanks!

Love this show well done Dave yet again a great video

Another great instructional video! Thank you for sharing!

Glad to see the trusty wagons still going

Suddenly there is a run on the market for old F-150s because we all want to work on our own trucks with Dave. 😂

Great Video, so interesting. You really know all about everything car, Dave! Great to have this knowledge, and thank you for explaining it all to us while you are doing it. Be Well!

I want a good old truck like that, I'll keep looking on marketplace

Dave, if someone with a farm needed a portable parts washer in the field, a used pump like this could be used with simple green and water, half and half, and an old kitchen sink. It could be run from the truck or tractor battery and be quite a convenience.

I thought removing and reinstalling the front gas tank was harder and more complicated. I just bought a 94 f150 and the guy who I bought it from told me that the front tank didn't work and I have been scared to work on it. Honestly your video gave me some confidence. Thanks 👍🏼

Interesting to see how it all goes together! Thanks Dave!

Good video Dave. Hope I never have to do that job, but now I know I can if needed. Thanks

Have a safe blessed day! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Good job Dave.

Great demo Dave. Top notch video............................. 👍👍

Good stuff Dave,,, be well out there!

This is such a great video. Thank you!

...great info.. stay safe and enjoy...

Great video !

Good Job Dave

Thanks for sharing this great info. You make it look so easy. I really appreciate how close you get with your camera work and your thorough explanations as to what each piece does. Keep up the great work. Nice seeing Maisey (?) at the end too. She's a Legend! :)

Great job , you just got a new subscriber , I’ve got a 2003 Nissan Frontier xe , the fuel tank is leaking , my mechanic wants over $1200 to replace it & fuel pump so I’m thinking about trying it myself .

This was a much better way to replace a leaking fuel tank (I had an F150 that developed this issue ... really sad memories!) Those hangers were the subject of a recall. They were known to fail at just the wrong time (read: full tank of gas falling off while driving ... ouch!!) Thanks for another diy gem, sir! See you down the road :)

Good stuff. I have a "94 F150 that I'm changing both tanks in. Gotta love the Ford rust, lol.

Enjoyed the video. Good information to have.

Thanks Dave 🌲🌲🌲

Good video dave

Awesome job Sir

Love the new channel

Nice video but I am a bit concerned when you use a petroleum (oil) based product to seal a rubber fitting. Sometimes there is a negative reaction. Hopefully the rubber is oil friendly.

Wow! I thought it was much more difficult to change a fuel tank. I was going to sell my 2004 Rav4 because the tank is leaking, but now I will look into having it changed. Thank you so much! P.S. Are you the same guy who is married to Girl in Woods? She's awesome too!!

I’m thinking you have a Brand new truck by now 🤩

Awe thank you

damn Dave, it's gonna be a brand new truck when you're done! lol

been missing your videos. hope all is well.

My grandpa had a yellow pair of wire crimpers... 😆

Did you have to use a fuel line disconnect tool for that particular one? Or does the line slide off after taking the little metal bracket off?

You're radical ;)

This is the one disadvantage of EFI as the fuel pumps are in the fuel tanks. Changing one on a truck is relatively easy but on a car can be a bear. Many often buy the pump and sending unit as one piece but that can be pricey. I've know a few guys who cut a hole on the left side of the bed so they didn't have to pull the tank off to get to the pump.

Bad Ass Horse!

Hello Dave.

Two weeks ago I had to replace the rear brakes, rotors, calipers, pads on my 05 Trailblazer. The lug nuts were so tight I wore myself out just trying to get one tire off. Down to the Harbor Freight I went and picked up the same impact driver you are using. Sure made the rest of the job go much easier. Why didn't I get one of those years ago? Also, how did you get the gas out of the old tank? Were you able to siphon it out?

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks for the video, do you buy oem or third party parts and do you find them as good?

Dave, What do you do when there has been gas left in gas Tank for 4yrs! I have been told I would somehow empty the tank or put an additive in the Tank so it is safe to use.

My fuel gauge is shot (both front and rear tanks). I’m thinking this will fix it. Is it safe to assume both fuel tanks have the same fuel pump and sending unit?

In my old van, I cheated and cut an access hole in the floor. It has a 33 gallon tank between the differential and the rear bumper with a frame mounted trailer hitch under the tank. I only have to cut out the access hole once. Manufacturers should do it to start with.

Noob question here, but is the wire connection water-tight? I would just wonder whether that's a combustion risk

I assume your fuel pump went out and as you got into the repair, you also discovered a rusty tank? Or, did you have a fuel tank leak and then decide to replace the pump since you were going to drop the tank, anyway?

I’ve always been leery of taking out a tank for any reason, for fear of explosion risk. Lol. Leave it to me to be like that. Is there really ways to clear out the fumes though, to avoid the fire risk?

I have a cracked oil pan. Hoping to see how much time and money it will take

Should have used heat shrink connectors inside the fuel tank.

Hey Dave, I want to send something to you and Brook, and I think you may like it. I have talked to brook on FB and now dont have a FB account anymore. No, I was not suspended, I had just had enough of social media in my life. I have invited you and her to KY to stay at my cabin, if you are interested. I would like to get this for you and her so if I know where to send it to I will buy it and have it sent to you.

Gun oil?🤠
