Great video, I love how you just put your shoulder under the wheel well and lifet the bed up by yourself!

This fella did an extraordinary job demonstrating this project! The narrative was detailed, the video was clear and crisp, overall outstanding!!!

I usually don't leave comments, but I have to say this video was very helpful and I want to thank you!

As the buddy he mentioned doing a replacement for previously, I want to say that it is pumping right along 6 years and 50,000 miles later! Thanks, D-Ray!

Knocked mine out today, D-Ray. I had to drop the hitch first. That was fun. Got everything buttoned back up, cranked her up, put my foot on the brake and brake fluid squirted everywhere. I guess the vibration from the impact gun broke the corroded line, so here we go. Gas gauge works now, but can't go anywhere lol. Oh well. Thanks for the fine vid, brotha!

good job, you explain things well and the video footage is clear and close up...this is full of content...thumbs up

Excellent job. Your attention to detail in the planning and execution of the repair gets an A+. The video was outstanding as well.

This is absolutely PERFECT! you are a natural instructor and I like that you are also clean. I always hate to see people replace things and miss the opportunity to clean around and be proud of a clean good looking job. You even have the perfect voice to play this video on a large audience, ha! You should dedicate yourself to teach. Don't be surprised if GM or other company reaches out to you to be a spokesperson on the HOW TO videos.

I see the ron John surf co hat!!! I'm from Texas but grew up in cocoa beach Florida... Love that place. Thanks for the video brother

my first time seeing this video . i must say ,as a gm tech who has done hundreds of fuel pump over the years you have done a good job on making this video to help others do there own repairs .just remember safety first..

Thank D-Ray watched the video and went out and changed the pump on a 1999 Silverado!

Ole D-Ray seems like a guy you would want as a friend. A real genuine, easy going, good ole boy, as we say in the South. I could easily work for, or along side the man.

I don't even need to replace a fuel pump but this man knows how to get it done. One thing I would like to add, and should have been said, probably best to siphon out all of the gas from that fuel tank first. Gasoline is nothing to play with, highly volatile, and made me wary around that lamp he had near by. Even one static spark and your life will never be the same. You stand a better chance with diesel fuel, but pump gas is DANGEROUS.

Excellent. Thank you. Your video debunked what I had been told - tilting the bed is hard and more time consuming. With your video as a guide, I was able to replace the pump on a 2000 Silverado in just under an hour and half. What I really appreciate is the focus on safety - the support blocks, the brass punch tip and working with flammable contents. Thanks again.

mechanic said 400.00. I bought the fuel pump motor for 17 bucks on ebay and repaired it myself. you don't have to buy the entire unit. great video, thanks!

D-Ray-, I have been working on everything that's got an engine since I was 13 years old, I am 63 years old, I have a automotive mechanics degree, all the factory schools from Nissan:Toyota;Lexus;UD trucks;Mitusubishi; engine builders seminar; ect, Used to think this procedure was crazy dangerous, But Brother I have got to say, YOU made me a believer!!! You taught a Mangy Old dog in texas something new. Your video is Very WELL Done, you did not miss a thing!!! Clear and Concise, heck I subscribed, it was so well done. Congratulations!! And thanks, enjoyed it. And by the way, I never leave comments.

I like this video because you break it down. I was stumped on how to take off fuel lines and it was very simple after you explained it. I watched a lot of videos on how to do this and all were missing steps...EXCEPT YOUR! Nice job man and thank you very much.

Why are there idiots giving this awesome video a thumbs down??? Oh probably cause those folks are shop mechanics and lost a few customers and a $300 + job. Thank you very much and you have the best video hands down for a DIY community.

D-Ray gotta say your video instuction on fuel pump replacement is superb. Today i changed a pump on a 1996 2500 silverado and wish i could have found your video first. the best trick was tilting the bed with the passenger bolts half way in. im 65 yrs young and i muscled the thing around without help. Well you can be sure i will be searching your videos in the future. Thank you for your contribution. Tom from Moscow Idaho.

This video was one of the most pleasant/enjoyable/concise/friendly/considerate videos I've ever watched on KZfaq. Great job my brother.

Great job in camera work .. and great details showing us everything that we actually need to do ... very professionally made video... well done ...

Excellent video, very clear and thorough verbal description and camera work. Thanks for a job well done

Thank you so much for posting this video. Just finished the job! Saved hours and hundreds of dollars !

The best video ever. Gets right to the point with tremendous detail

Best fuel pump replacement video for this truck I have seen.

I really enjoyed listening to you.. Your approach and easy manner are the symbalof a good man. Thank you D-Ray !!!

Thanks D-Ray, did this on my 2003 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.3 engine, however I am in the Rust belt, Northern Michigan. Your idea of tilting the bed worked great, and also can check out all the wires, brake lines too. Really glad I saw a post to buy a new locking ring, as mine was toast, nothing but rust. I decided to put in a Delphi fuel pump also. Thanks for all the pointers, Sure helped a lot!

Very good video. A no BS video, just a start to finish detailed and straight forward approach.

Awesome video Sir! It will save me a ton of time. I had to replace my fuel pump before and I dropped the tank not even thinking about just lifting the bed. This should be a piece of cake. Thanks again!

Great Video. Clear, to the point, and easy to watch. Thank you for your effort! I've got a duramax but watched anyway to see the bed lifted and the tank access.

I've seen so many poorly made videos made by goofs who know nothing, stand in the way of the cam, too dark, mumbling, hard to understand speech, noisy garbage. Your video is CLASS A INSTRUCTION!

Thanks to you, I preemptively replace my pump before it left me stranded. 2013 silverado with 150Ks . One quick thing I'd like to say, I had a tough time spinning the lock ring to secure the new pump. I decided to purchase the $20 tool available everywhere on line, with that tool, mission impossible became a walk in the park. Thank you for posting your video, Helped me immensely. Be well , live a long life.

This how-to is spot on! Just what I needed to see to do this myself. Thank you, thank you for such a great video.

I just changed my pump in mine doing it the way you showed it and it went purfect 👍 glade I saw your video because I didn't have any one to help me it went great thanks for doing this video 😆

Great video, very helpful. I like how you explained everything before you did it. That helps to know what you’re getting into.

Man, I just loved your videos. I followed them to replace the fuel pump on my 2001 Silverado. You are a very good man, my friend. And I love your accent. Seems like you'd be fun to hang out with.

D Ray you are the best. You’ve saved me tons of time and trouble. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. Keep up the good work love your videos.

Excellent instructional video. Only a couple things I would like to add and this is for a different year truck. (2000) The replacement pump didn't come with a tank strainer (sock) like the original. Took a lot of time to figure out it is built into the pump. (like the one shown in this video) Delco says it was moved to the internal location to avoid punctures. Nothing about the change in my instructions. Also the replacement pump can with the new style connector and the crimp connections to attach to the old wiring. Red connectors are for the small diameter wire and blue for the larger diameter wire. This information wasn't included in the instructions for my Delco pump. Delco pump with MU in the part number are complete fuel module with pump and sensor. Also noted on my truck the bed retaining bolts were 18mm. Thanks a bunch for the excellent video. Saved me a lot of time.

Thanks D-Ray...you made it look easy enough... hope it goes well for me.... again thanks a bunch

Thank you for making this high quality video with detailed explanations. Safety seems to be your #1 priority as should anyone that works with machinery.

I commented on part 1, I asked the question, "Do you really think this would be easier than just dropping the fuel tank?". Well, after replacing a few fuel pumps on a few cars and after watching this video I can answer my own question. Yes, this is much easier than pumping the fuel out of your tank, disconnecting your fuel filler neck, jacking ur truck up high enough to do the job & putting it on Jack stands, laying on your back & getting dirt in your eyes while taking the bolts out of the straps, getting dirt in your eyes while lowering the tank, pulling it out from under your truck, changing out the old fuel sending unit for a brand new Chineseum fuel sending unit, then sliding the fuel tank back under your truck, lifting the tank back up into position while getting dirt in your eyes, bolting the tank up with the straps while getting dirt in your eyes, bolting the tank straps up while getting dirt in your eyes, & then connecting the fuel filler neck.

From one Arkansas boy to another, Great video! Sure helped me a lot.

Thank you so very much D Ray!!!!!! Hands down the most educated video and the simplest way to do this. God bless and keep making videos my friend!!! 🍺🍺

I am planning on replacing my fuel pump next month, hopefully. This video has helped in explaining what to expect.

Great video! Was especially helpful with getting different types of connectors off.

Thank You! D-day your video was awesome! Helped me out so much,you did a great job explaining everything step by step. Very professional. I was able to change my fuel pump exactly how you did it. It took all day but was well worth it. Feeling very proud of myself. Thanks again! ♡

Amazing single hand dexterity! Very impressive and informative! Thank you!

THANKS D-RAY'S!! THIS VIDEOS HELP ME A LOT!!!!!

Perfect videos brother from start to finish. Everything i needed to know. Thanks again!

This method worked very well for me. Thanks for the in-depth video!

Stellar camera work and lighting. I was going to cut hole in bed but after I saw you can prop up with your back I am in, thanks!

D ray this was a great how to video I've dropped tanks (NEVER AGAIN) REMOVED THE BED TO MOVE IT BACK BUT YOUR PROCESS WORKED GREAT IT WAS EASILY A ONE MAN JOB BUT I DID HAVE HELP I REALLY APPRECIATE THE GUIDE YOU POSTED ONLY ADDITION WOULD BE TO REWIRE THE NEW PUMP THOSE DIRECTIONS IN THE NEW PACKAGE WERE NOT EASY AS YOUR VIDEO TO FOLLOW THANKS AGAIN BROTHER GREAT LESSON LOOK FORWARD TO MORE

best how to video ive seen, clear and concise!

Not one to usually comment. Too often someone ends up on the N Train (negative). I noticed a few here but whatcha gonna do ? On to business. I own a ford and I do live near the salt environment. All that said, this was one of the best how to videos I've ever watched. Almost made me want to sell my ford and buy a chevy. Naw! Just kidding. Seriously thanks and I learned a lot from you.

Thanks for the detailed video D-Ray! I am from PEI Canada and my truck does not look any where near like yours! Yours looks like a brand new truck! Mine is full of rust! I must say, Im a little jealous. LOL

Excellent Job D-Ray; all the way around!! Thank you!!

Best method I've seen yet. Thanks for sharing!

Very detailed how to video. Great job. Hope you do more!

I just wanted to say thanks this helped a lot, I'm currently in progress of replacing my fuel pump. I did this exact method, you explained everything well. I have a 08 chevy Silverado, mine was leaking fuel out of the side of one of the pipes that comes out from pump.

I agree, this how-to was spot on. Great job.

Well done. Very detailed and thorough. thanks for taking the time.

Loved your video you made it look easy I am from Northern PA what a rusty mess i had but it worked Thanks again for the video

I love your videos, always learn something from them

Thanks so very much for making such a straight forward no nonsense tutorial and, for sharing your time and knowledge with everyone:>)

Thank you! We weer going camping and got about 60 miles from home and the truck sputtered and died, left us on the side of the road , camper and all, got towed back. lol this weekend is a fuel pump and no camping trip....thanks this video will help a lot

D-Ray good vid. I have a 95 Chevy Silverado, I've owned it since new and have put 3 fuel pumps in to. The first 2 I just bough the pump from Auto Zone. On the 3rd one I got the complete assembly, this is the only way to go. Spend the extra bucks and in the end you won't have to go back inside. I had help with my brother, we moved the bed back to the rear of the vehicle. I needed the room. Like you I had a lot of gas in the pig. Been lucky so far, the complete unit has lasted longer than just the pump. Good vid. GM and the other companies have a shitty design with the pump inside of the tank. They could have installed a electric pump next to the frame rail that would make replacement easier.

Hey just found your video. Thousands of thanks. Like Gomer Pyle said, thank ya, thank ya, thank ya!

I'm probably going to have to do this replacement soon on my '05 Chevy Silverado ext.cab long bed..probably going to do it exactly this same way too. I usually am sans help around here lol. Great video D-Ray :-)

im about to do this tomorrow... im going to drop my tank to clean it out real good but i can see the advantage of doing it your way( lifting the bed) because you can actually test it.... but mine was just pumping low psi (20psi and still running after changing the fuel filter) but great video, and you really sound like you understand whats going on.. i really like the detail in taking the connections off the actual module itself................

You explain the job real good and excellent video footage thanks Carlos Zamot

update! worked perfectly customer is happy :) thanks a million

Hey young man; I commend you on the video. Very very helpful. We did have on trouble spot. Even though this truck was almost as clean as the one you did. We had a heck of a time with bed bolts. these were the tightest I think I have ever come across. We soaked with PB Blaster. Seems on both sides, the second from cab gave us the most probs. After that all went as you described. Tnks again; Tom

Great video. Very thorough, very clear, Thanks for the help.

Well done , fantastic quality video , info , and the way you did things Really professionel Thanks Serge ( from Mtl )

VERY COOL POST! Saved me a LOT of money! THANKS!

I wish the lock ring on a 07 looked like that up here in new england. We usually can't reuse them from the amount of rust/rot on them. Sometimes the tabs on the tank are rotted as well. I'm moving down south. Love the video.

Fantastic work, great video.. answered every possible question in a very professional way. I'd let D-ray work on any of my cars, and I'm very particular!

Great video, Thanks a lot man, your video helped me to change the fuel pump by my self, 👍🏻

Thanks for the great help lesson on fuel pump replacement for Sierra 1500. Wish I'd seen this when mine died. Could have had it towed to house, done it myself and saved $775 in shop charges.

You did good job bud I have just one question why is it always when you fill your truck up

VERY WELL MADE INSTRUCTION VIDEO! BRAVO!

Very nicely done, helpful video. Great work.

Really well done. I would have been pretty worried if I saw how different the replacement part was from the original!

very good video , very helpful 👍👍 i appreciate the time you took to show us how to di this

Great idea, will help get at those rusted fuel lines too, it's also a choke point for replacing brake lines. Speaking of rusted fuel lines, we could use a tutorial like this on a fuel line replacement/repair. Thanks!

Thanks, man, you make it look easy!

awesome! my truck does not need it now, but I'm getting prepared. And yes I prefered your way, instead bring down the whole fuel tank. thank you

Nice job on the close up shots, good use of the dielectric grease. Only as a suggestion, I might have used a "contact cleaner" first on the electrical plugs, then the dielectric grease. Good that you mention the grounding connector. Amazing how that electrical point of contact is a major problem. Thank you.

Thank you so much for this video. Very well done well explained in detail. Please keep posting. Thumbs up 👍 liked and subscribed

boy you got guts you are very very good to do that kind of job I hope it's never going to happen on my truck

Great video! Thanks for posting this.
