Thank you just completed a solo mission dropping the tank and this video really clarified what a lot of videos lacked. Thank you my brother and my truck green too :)
Nice move with the folding chairs, cuts down on back and knee stress, Thanks, Not sure I'd come up with that on my own. You helped an old man today, me.
Thank you for showing what reality looks like when doing these jobs. Earned a sub today, gotta replace the whole tank on my k1500 cause a rust hole but you just saved me a headache, so thanks!
Thank you for doing it the right way and NOT cutting a hole in your bed. I see all these videos of people doing that without realizing how badly it effects the structural integrity of the bed. Don't believe me? Drop a brick on your 'access' flap and see what happens. Also applies to couch or table legs. It was at least a thousand dollar deduction at the dealership too. Good job but please get yourself some electric ratchets Tony. Rigid stuff works great and I have adapters for 1/4" 3/8" & 1/2" sockets.
It’s a good video, I have 2 of these trucks and have had to replace both pumps - I opted to undo the bolts and hardware from the bed and use a comealong and small scaffold to lift the box off, then you can work on the gastank easily
Just recently I had to replace my tank 1988 GMC k 1500 newer body style had a 25 gallon in it I ended up going up to it 35 gallon it fits for regular driving and everyday use but this was a long bed regular cab pickup so there's room
What’s up Tony?! I am literally dropping my fuel tank now as we speak…Just came across your video! I am your newest subscriber! Great video and to the point! Btw,How is this pump holdin up these days?! Hope so!I look forward to much more content from your channel! With Love from Gulf Shores,Alabama!! ~ROLL TIDE~
Metal is a horrible material for gas tanks, moisture and corrosion usually end up killing fuel pumps or fucking up the fuel system, fuel cells are the only things that should be metal

Why can’t u just weld it back up ? Integrity would return
Thank you! I was able to get my tank dropped without taking the bed off 👏

I've used my ratchet as a hammer many times. That retaining ring gave me a little trouble, but eventually came off.
Every tool has a hammer side!
The hose fittings can be very rusty. Pull the truck bed off.

If you need to take the bed off, replace the pump.
remove fuel lines at gas tank 1998 Chevy pickup
Why GM and some other manufacturers stopped using the old fantastic reliable metal gas tanks ???
Rust
Reliable? Please
Same reason you cannot find metal gas cans....condensation
Plastic is better when dealing with flex fuel/e85

hello ma'am

You get it back in by yourself lol
Cual es el orden de encendido de Chevrolet Silverado americana 4x4 v8 motor 5.7
1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 en las que yo e trabajado.
@@how-2-tony145 I memorized that firing order when I was a kid and 40 years later I have never forgotten it
These chevys have a real bad rust problem especially the pre 96 trucks and they were built cheap.
Years are incorrect-87 to 95
87 was the last year of the square bodys and the obs lineup went from 88 to 98
