Awesome video man! I appreciate the step by step process, keep up the great content! I’ll be changing mine this upcoming weekend.
U wanna do another one in Tolleson
@@able_trucking780 I can do it
Respect how professional he sounds and user friendly you are.
Had to comment and give props!
Thank you I appreciate it 🙏
Just was able to replace my fuel pump in a couple hours by myself THANKS TO THIS VIDEO. Thank you man such a great video. Shop wanted $1400 to do it. Got an ACdelco pump online and knocked it out! 💪
Awesome!
😊
I paid 400 for mine but after this video I'll just do it myself
This video just saved me a thousand dollars in labor alone. You made it look easy and it was pretty easy. Thanks.
Glad it helped
It must be nice to live in a place where everything isn’t rusty.
This method sure beats removing the bed entirely. Makes getting the bolts aligned a no brainer. Thanks!
Thank you!
Excellent! The best and most detailed video on this.
Bro u are the man. Ty so much! Best vid/tutorial on TH-cam!! I was stressed all week about doing this today but your video completely removed my anxiety!! Thx a mil!!!!!!
Glad to help out!
😊
You make it look easy ! I've done my fuel pump once already by dropping the tank which was a pain. This time I think I'm gonna raise the bed, which seemed like a big deal before, but now it looks much more manageable, thanks to you. Very cool. 👍👍👍
It was not too bad actually glad I could help
@@ERICSDIYGARAGE And
Hey Eric, Props to you. My Silverado wouldn't fire yesterday, and I suspected the fuel pump. After a couple tests it was pretty much the only thing it could have been. Looked up changing a 2001 Silverado fuel pump, watched your video once, bought a new pump and have my truck running this evening. Thanks much!!!!!!!!!
Awesome!
I know this is a year old but we found your video today and were able to follow your step by step successfully. This saved us hundreds of dollars! Thank you for taking the time to post this! Liked and subscribed!
Thank you for watching. I'm glad it helped out!
Great video, so many helpful tips and perfect camera angles. About to go tackle this fuel pump now and feel at ease after watching this
Glad to help thank you and I appreciate it
Was dropping the tank and one strap bolt was stripped and now have to lift the bed up or off and you saved my bacon with this video. Hats off to you my man...
Man you are a savior brotha!! No experience whatsoever with fuel pumps and shop wanted $1200 dollars in labor without parts included and thanks to this video I have successfully changed my own fuel pump and saved over $1200 doing it myself following this video step for step is all you need! Thanks man you are the man!!!
$1200? Where did you take it,to the dealer? That's damn ridiculous!
Bro you are a real one! My fuel level bounces so Im bout to do this this weekend and you gave a great explanation with the camera angles that I can ACTUALLY understand. Thank you👍
Thank you glad to help out!
Was going to cut a hole in my bed until I saw this video. I had the advantage of having a tractor with a front end loader to lift the drivers side of the bed, but the process was much easier than I had anticipated. Other than one of the fuel line clips being damaged, and having to run around town to find replacement clips (Napa), it took less than 2 hours. THANKS!!!
This IS A GREAT video. Mine just went out. This was to the point was brief, simple, easy, and NO TIME WASTED
Very nice job, love how you explained well all your steps, thanks, am using your vid to do my 2004 with a canopy no less!
Just replaced my grandpa's fuelpump using your method. Youre a fuckin legend
I really appreciate the tip about removing the relay , then letting itself run out of gas ; New revelation for me & a whole lot less mess !!
Glad to help thank you for watching!
Well done video. Though I've done this job before, I'm always looking to see how others have done it and to refresh my brain on all the steps. Love the stepside Silverado too! At 174k miles it still has a lot of life left. A few more fuel pump changes too!😊
Glad you enjoyed it
I am getting closer and closer to pin pointing that my issue im having is my fuel pump and I was dreading dropping the tank but this step by step video was so clear that it should be really easy for me to do thank you. And I hope this fixes my problem
lifesaver for sure!!! I pin pointed my fuel pump was bad and was dreading doing it. but thanks to you I was able to do the job in about 2 hours! saved me money and makes me feel better knowing that I did the job not some stranger!
thanks!
That's awesome glad to help!
This was very helpful thanks! The fuel pump we installed needed some re-wiring for a different connector type but this vid made the process a breeze (relatively speaking)
Thank you so much! I'm closing on a house on Tuesday, and my pump went out last night (saturday). No mechanics open on Sunday and I have to have my truck this week. You saved me, and you also saved me $700 ( I would've had to have it towed plus labor). You're the best, man!
Glad to help thank you for watching!
Hope you’re closing went well
Completely filled my tank 6 hrs before my pump wetn out... ugh. But this is the BEST Fuel pump replacmenet video ive seen. Great views, great light, great information, great resoluation. Awesome!!
Thank you!
We just switched my sons fuel pump with this video. Thank you for the informative video. I usually take the bed completely off but the bed was loaded down. This is a great way to do it without completely removing the bed. Thanks again
Thank you for watching!
Never thought about lifting the bed of the truck. I like that this allows you to verify no leaks and everything is connected properly. Cheers!
Glad you found it helpful thanks for watching
I was ready to say screw it and either sell my truck or have someone come fix it for $300 until I seen this vid. I appreciate u G stay up
Thank you! To the point and easy to follow! Doing mine saturday and this will help tremendously!
Thank you for watching!
Just watched your video, very very helpful!
Thanks! You just convinced me how “involved” this job is. Now I know why I went ahead and coughed up the money to pay my mechanic to do the job! 😮😂
Thanks for the video! I was debating on dropping the tank on my silverado. From the looks of it, your method was fairly easy.liked and subscribed!
Yeah I wouldn't drop it you might damage the tank glad to help thanks I appreciate it!
Literally the best got too video ever, filming was great and information was awesome
Thank you!
Awesome job helped me out today!
Thank you for the video if was very useful. My brother and I had to change his fuel pump on the side of the highway. This video was very detailed and helped us alot.👍
Glad to help thank you!
Great video. I don't have many tools like a lift or even a jack and you explained how to complete this task without those items which is great. I have what I think is an intermittent fuel pump on my 2000 Sierra, and after watching I feel a little more confident about doing it myself instead of paying the $600-$800 my mechanic wants to do the job. If I decide to do it myself I will report back if I'm successful. Once again, great video. Glad to have guys like you on TH-cam.
Thank you and good luck 👍
The trick to those fuel line connectors in the middle is to squeeze the flat sections on the end of the plastic. If they haven't become too brittle and break, then the plastic will deform in the right direction and far enough to just pull the lines off the pump. They're super-easy! Terrific video. Very well described with clear instructions. I liked the close-ups and I would've also appreciated a few more "big picture" shots, but that probably would've required running two cameras. Really good job on what you did.
Eric followed your step by step on my 2002 Chevy Silv 1500HD CrewCab 4x4 fuel pump replacement. It went so smooth, thanks brother for the tips. SEMPER FI!!!
would your truck just crank start an stall when you figured it was the pump I also have a 1500hd an just ran into this problem today never had any problems prior starting they truck
A very informative and well done video. I’m getting ready to replace my fuel pump assembly and wish to thank you for your help. L&S
Glad to help thank you!
Awesome video. Just got my son a 2001 for his first vehicle and it needs a few fixes, the fuel pump being one of them. Figured the truck would be a great learning experience for him and I to learn and work together on, and your video is exactly the step by step guide we needed. Thanks so much!!
Thank you!
Couldn’t be more right, I love my truck, it was 2002 truck of the year as a 20 year old kid I have never had an issue- until yesterday obviously lmao
Hands down, Best trick to replacing a fuel pump without dropping the bed. Ended up having to cut one of my bed bolts because of living in the rust belt. Still beats dropping the tank. Thank you
Thank you glad you got it done
This video saved me $1k, took it to the shop, and sae this video and i was like, easy work, and got my truck back instead, thanks bro
Awesome👌
Thanks for being nice enough to post the video. This could be done on the side of the road if you have a few tools. Good method for people who may not have anyone to help.
Glad to help thank you for watching!

Good job with production and instructions. Made it seem less intimidating
Great video, especially if you only have to lift one side. I'm going to attempt this on my project S10. Good info.
What a Great idea to loosen passenger side and only lift drivers side of box! Thanks!

A bro, thanks for this video it really helped me with my fuel pump. Keep up the good work.
Thank you. I'm glad you found it helpful
worked very well thank you, did it with a 8 foot bed, lumber rack and a tool box. Had to use floor jack, but it worked.
Nice work!
Gee, yet another Eric who clearly explains how to do car repairs. OK, I'll sub, nice job! I like the way you left one side partially bolted, so the bed can't shift and let the jack stand tip over.
Thansk appreciate it 🙏
Thank you so very much. I had nightmares about how I was gonna do this by myself. You Rock
Thank you!
You make it look easy. Thanks for the video

Excellent video, thanks for making it.
Thank you!
This was very good. Thank you.
That was a awesome job and I enjoyed how you were very helpful on all the tricks and techniques on this ! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Fuel pump just went out with a full tank and i was dreading the thought of lowering the tank. Can't wait to try this thanks for the video
I'm currently in the process, today i removed the bed bolts without an impact. A good breaker bar and some WD-40 and they come right off. Make sure to use a long extension so you have more room to swing the breaker bar.
@@bladimirgarcia6063is it wrong to use impact? Like cordless ratchet
@@user-lo8qx6cg8u No, using an impact is the best method. I didn't have one at the time so i used a breaker bar.
It was exactly as easy as you made it look. Thanx
Thank you what a great video I was going to send this out to have somebody do it right you gave me the confidence to do it myself thank you very much❤
Glad to help thank you!
Your good at teaching thanks 😊
Thanks for the video, I just got it done on mine. Funny I also have a black 300zx.
I was just about to drop the fuel tank to replace the pump. Thanks for the tips.
Glad to help thank you for watching!
Heck yeah brother super helpful!
Bruh, you just saved me a few hundred, appreciate ya G
Thanks for the video bro got me threw it pretty easy man
Glad to help thanks for watching!
Great video!Very helpful!
Thank you!
Your video made it an easy task. Thank you sir
Thank you!
Good idea thanks for the positive video thumbs up👍
Nice Z32 in the garage
Thanks 🙏🏼 bro very helpful 👍😎
Great video. I am 4 hours into my fuel pump replacement and here are some of my obstacles. I had a aluminum step attached to the frame and bed that had to be disconnected at the frame. BUT the biggie was I have a Bed Bolt on Driver side in the back and in line with the spare that will not come out. It broke loose and threaded out about 1.25" like all the others BUT it now just spins. It will not go back in and will not go back out. I am going to have to cut through the bolt with a reciprocating saw. Even jacking up the bed and putting pressure on the head of the bolt had no effect. APPARENTLY whatever these bolts thread into can fail or detach...not good. So I will be dropping the Spare tire to make room and use my Hercules cordless saw to cut the bolt. This is probably why so many bolts are missing on a lot of fuel pump videos I have been watching. My 2002 truck is 99 percent rust free and had an easy life before it came to me 2 years ago.
Great video. I broke the cage nut on the tank strap and need to lift the bed. Thanks for your efforts good job
Thank you!
Super helpful. Thanks!
Glad to help thank you!
Dude life saver 🙌🏽🙌🏽
very thorough ! well done.👍 just wish I'd replaced the pump when I raised the bed like you did for the brake line replacement. Ahhh, hindsight, oh well .. sub and like
Excellent video. Salute.
