- These old tbi systems need a steady 10-13 psi to run the injectors and regulators correctly. If you get lean codes after long extended drives and/or have hard starting due to low pressure, this is how you change the fuel pump in these old vans/pickups.
I really appreciate this video i have an 88 g2500 and was convinced i had to jack up the back end so thank you
Thanks !! Quinton... I know how this Job Goes personally. I just wanted to Share My Unique Experience, that occurred with my 90 G20- Fuel Pump... After Parking one Day, at the Curb, with a Half full Tank of Gas, the Van Wouldn't Start.I don't know Why I Immediately concluded that the Fuel Pump Needed Replaced. Basically I didn't hear any Fuel pump Whirring Noise with the Ignition on.So, I dropped the HEAVY TANK, Carefully Poured out as Much Gas As I had Gas Cans, Open Buckets To save the Gas, making the Tank Easier to Manage.I pulled out the Fuel Pump, thought about the $100- to- $150. Purchase coming up, so I tested the Pump with 12 volts and it Whirred, this Made Me Think .... To check for voltage going to the fuel pump...there was None...!
I already knew all of the Fuses were Good... So I deducted that the Power Wire from the " ignition on "
To the Fuel Pump... Must have a Break in it- because 12 volts was not being Delivered to the Pump...!!
So , I did a " Mickey Mouse"
Quick Fix- to get the Van Running Again : I ran a taped jumper Wire , tapped into the License Plate Light Wire ...to the Fuel pump hot wire....Now The Pump only Pumps when the Parking/ Headlights are On. This is a Good Anti- Theft System as Well...!! The Van Only
"Cranks "without the Parking Lights ON...( while I'm Driving...also, yes...). I did Have to struggle through the Tank/ Gasoline Replacement. But I did not have 20' - 30' of single run wire to Tap into an Ignition
" On " Source... I have Been Comfortable with this Quick Fix For 8 months Now... I do Hope to Wire it back up Correctly Someday... Stringing the Wire Securely... Front to Rear. I hope this Gives Some Insight, Thoughts to Others With this Scenario. BillinL.A.

Good job Bill!
That’s some impressive problem solving
Thanks for the video! I’ve got a 91 Chevy G20… I love my van. Hopefully you don’t end up junking this van, prices are going up as it becomes “classic” ha
Thank you for the great work and showing me how to change the fuel pump and how to do it carefully
Thank you but what happens if you put the fuel lines back together wrong
You can put a floor jack under the tank when reinstalling instead of lifting it physically
Dude, dirt bikes and a Chevy shorty? Just like me! I have an '89, exact same colour. 2 Honda 2 wheelers. I'm fat and old too!
Thanks Dude! My Dad bought me my first race van, a 79 G20, had the louvered rear windows and solid sides. When I got away from road racing and back into dirt bikes I figured this time I'd get a high top!
that is not a chevy shorty , regular length . look at the door on side of van. still a nice van!
Excellent video I have a 93 Chevy G30 14ft box truck just changed the fuel filter still doesn't start I'm going to try to fuel pump next thanks a lot
Two words for ya to consider -TRAP DOOR - Locate where pump is and cut a "C'" flap through bed of van or truck .Easy to drop in new pump and if it goes again you can drop new one in 10 minutes on side of the road .
Great idea, lots of folks can and do do that, but I have an RV style bed and electrical setup in the back of my van that precludes wanting to put holes or doors in the floor. Thanks
I’d rather drop the tank.
Exactly what I did. I just took my grinder out and cut an access door in the floor of my van. I riveted the metal with a bracket and all is well….
@@insidelookingout6480do you know where exactly to cut? I have the Vandura version. It has barely been driven for 10 years but now needs a fuel pump. Considering the difficulty removing the rusted bolts I'm thinking that making a door will be easier.
Whole shpigeg is going in my vocabulary now
thanks....just what I needed to know for my G20 van !!!
Floor jack let tank down
Floor jack put tank up
Easy peasy
Thanks for all your good info bro.
I drop the tank only one time then I cut open a door bay on the floor of my van for the fuel pump have a metal bolted door with a rubber gasket I can change the pump anywhere any time in less then 1Hr and be on my way i got the idea from a friend in the 80 he make the same modification to a pick up truck the manufacture should do the saime
yeah I've seen that before, but my van has a bed and a 12 v house battery in the back, didn't want to tear all that out with the carpet
You know where about the hole needed to be cut. I need to drain my gas. And i dont wanna remove my hitch
VERY HELPFUL
THANK YOU
Eu arrumei minha assistindo seu video
Obrigado
Thanks. I'm about to have to do this
Thnx man
Any time
My god! Get a cameraman. I think I'm seasick now
I ran a job placement ad for a cameraman. I offered them 20% of the money I get from making these videos and all the free mac and cheese they can eat. Since zero times 20% is still zero, I only had one very hungry guy show up to do the job, and let's just say he didn't make it.
Great video Sir. I very respectfully wanted to ask if You knew the best place to purchase another New Battery Tray for these vans??? Im having trouble finding one.
I sure dont, I'm sorry. A flat plate tacked onto a post with some j bars would do the trick if you can weld.
I have a 1992 G20, it needs a new motor, I plan on using it to haul a Harley Wideglide
Thanks a lot. It's very usefull. I hope my tank come out easially like yours do. 33 years old screws.
Can I have the parts numbers and make of pump assembly please ?
I have a different kind of van but I had a similar problem where I had to drop the whole tank to get to the fuel pump.
Well I cut out an access panel then bolted down the slightly larger piece of metal than the one I cut out. Next time I won't have to drop the tank.
That is a popular option, but I have other equipment in that location so it's not an option for me.
Hey I have a 1991 Chevrolet g20 van. I need help. I need the fuel pump replaced and how to attach the brake fluid back?
I got a 320 van, purchased it from rock auto, a spectrum brand. Was no good. Was to late to return Should have went for the 300$ pump. I lost money.
I gotta replace my fuel pump on my 91 g2500. Do i really need to remove my hitch to drop the tank? (Its just like yours) Or will the front strap screws be good enough to drop?
Honestly it depends on the tank and the hitch and the angles. I needed to move mine for sure, but you may get lucky.
@ctguy591 not feasible on a 91. By the way I didn't have to remove my hitch. Once loosed, i had enough wiggle room to work around it
Good info.
wouldn't it be easier to cut a hatch in the back of the van right over the pump and not drop the tank?? just sayin . . . but removing the tank would allow a deep cleaning to the innards. Nice work though, you'll have a nice reliable van to drive! (nicer than my G20!) hats off for that! - question which model of transmission did you install, just curious . . . ?
It wouldn't be easier on this specific van. 12 volt systems, beds, etc
Where did you get the crate engine from? For rusted nuts and bolts mix automatic transmission fluid and percentage of acetone and spray it on the rusted parts and soak for 24 hours.
I bought it from a chevy dealer in fredericksburg va
@@cycleforlife2170 - I always wanted to do that, what does crate engine come with does it come with the intake manifold and the exhaust manifolds? Can you give a ballpark figure about what you paid then, I know prices may fluctuate and were you happy with the purchase? Thank you!
Hey man just got a 1994 g20 where did you get the crate engine
chevy dealer fredericksburg va
I have a 1996 rm 250 just like yours i dont know why urs looks so tall compared to mine how tall are u im about 5.8
Excuse me, is this truck got a fuse and a petrol pump relay? I just saw the fuse but I can't find the relay
I honestly don't know. I lost pressure, not electricity, so I didn't research this issue
Brand new tank for that truck is dirt cheap
where did you buy the sending unit?
bought the pump, hose, filter, and sender all together at autozone in one kit, one part number.
@@cycleforlife2170 ok thanks!
1992 GMC G2500 Vandura...what about cutting a hole in rear floor? dimensions? Thanks
I don't know, I have a bed and a carpet and a 12 volt setup back there so I didn't cut my floor.
What brand are you using for the fuel pump assembly, how is it so far it is working good?
I bought it at auto zone in Georgia when I lived down there. They had options for just the pump (cheap), the pump and hose kit, (cheap) and an assembled unit complete with sending unit parts. About 150$ I think?
I"ve put about 30,000 miles on it since I installed it. Works great.
Thank you
on my 1995 g20 i just cut out van floor
I gotta removal my hitch. Smh
😅
