Thanks. I have changed the tank in my S10, but I am always a bit nervous about jobs like these. You made it look so easy. Now I guess I have no excuse to not be crawling under my car today.
I've watched this video about 4 times now... gonna dive in and replace mine tomorrow. Im no gear head but seems like something I can tackle. Wish me luck. :)
Thanks! You guys saved me some time. You made me confident that I wasn't leaving anything connected before I dropped it. Also getting those fittings off was hard and you ensured me that I was taking them off the right way without breaking them. Got my car running again and saved $500 over the shop doing it.
Gas is pretty heavy. If you go to Home Depot they should have a gas siphon tool that might work for you. It's only like 10-15 dollars. Check the lawn mower dept. Hope this helps you out.
Thank you for the great reply. We love to empower our customers by showing you how-to perform your own auto repairs while installing our high quality auto parts. Have a great day! 1aauto.com +Lars Glyn
You may want to check to see if there's fuel getting to the motor from the pump. It could also be a clogged fuel filter. If you haven't changed it is a while it wouldn't hurt to place a new one in.
very helpful .I decided to get at it from the top and watching you replace the tank showed me where to make my cut-X marks the spot. I recognize that not many should attempt this route, as there is a chance of cutting trough the fuel lines. I used a dremel multi tool with a carbide blade keeping the blade flat so as not to punch though the sheet metal into the tank or lines.
this video was very helpful, specifically this part: 12:41 . I needed instructions on how to install the new wire harness because my car had a square connector which would not fit on the new fuel pump. your video was the only one I found that showed how to install the new wire harness so thanks.
I want to thank you for making this video. I changed the fuel pump in my daughters Alero today. I really did not want to do this job but your video answered all my questions. Thank you again.
My 02 malibu wont turn over. It took a while before it actually turned over this morning, drove it too class, three hours later it would not start, just keep cranking. Could the fuel pump be the problem? I've already ruled out the theft system, and a blown fuse. And I dont hear any hum when I turn the key to the on position.This channel is the best, its really helping me out with my malibu.
thank you very much, your video was very helpful when my fuel pump left me stranded, everything was just like you showed, I hope you have a wonderful year full of good fortune, you helped me very much, I love my Chevy Malibu, it's a great car.
As usual I appreciate the videos. I just did some Mobil mechanic work for a guy stranded at work. While I was under there I changed the fuel filter as well since that thing was from the factory with 200k miles on it
The basket shown in the video has the pump inside of it. The process would be the same. You may want to try to change the fuel filter to see if it helps to clear the issue up.
Not sure if I had commented earlier or not. This vid helped me replace my fuel pump about a year ago. Saved me a few hundred bucks at the least, as I didn't have to take it to a garage to do this. Simple to follow instructions, grateful for the post. This video, by itself, has made 1A Auto Parts my go-to tutorial source. If I get in a situation where I can wait for a part to ship, I'll be ordering through 1A Auto as well! Thanks for the vid. Sorry it's taken so long to post a thank-you!
As it is, I do have a problem with my exhaust system on my 01 Malibu ... When I have a weekend to spend working on it, I'm sure I'll do some diagnostics to figure out exactly what I need to replace or tighten up. If you know of any good tutorials (or have one posted) on exhaust, point the way! Because exhaust doesn't stop the car from going down the road, I'll likely be ordering those parts from y'all....
Josh Donat Unfortunately we do not have a video for exhaust on an 01 Malibu, but we'll keep it in mind for future videos. Thanks again for checking us out
Thank you for making the complicated simple. That's a gift not many possess. Question, can you make a video for replacing the sending unit on a 2000 Buick La Sabre??? I am having the same issue and everyone wants to charge a leg to repair it.
I love this video. Now I can understand the amount that I'm being charged. Replacing the fuel pump takes a lot of work. I have to purchase a new fuel pump as well. Thanks guys so much.
@1aauto thanx ever so much. This repair was a breeze! Now just wish I coulda fixed my Bonneville when she broke down. I might still have her. Many many thanx. :)
Thank you a lot for the video, you saved me $600. I had my fuel pump go out unfortunately and had it towed to a shop that I never did business with, and they quoted me $700 for this job, and I was surprised how quick this took to fix.......20 minutes top with another person to help (would have been less if we didn't have to re-thread a bolt.)
Started my car. Pulled out of the driveway....car died. Wouldnt start. Bought a new battery....didnt fix and problems. Got it towed and $500 dollars later had my fuel pump and filter replaced. Thanks for the video!!
@GodLovinConservative It may be. The basics should be the same, but there could be a few different things that you need to do. Hope this help you out. Have a great day!
I struggled with those quick disconnects at first. Just to reiterate, after you open the flap, you push the disconnect clips up so as if they are coming off the line; they won't actually come off, but then you can pull off the tubing.
Some vehicles are like that but most require the tank to be dropped. There are some people out there that have cut a hole in there trunk to access the pump but that is very dangerous and we do not condone that.
On the 99-03 Chevy Malibu the fuel pump and the sending unit are all one unit. If the gas gauge stops working or starts to drop quickly all of a sudden usually those are the signs of a bad sending unit. Here's a link to the replacement fuel pumps on out website. 1aauto.com/1A/FuelSendingUnits/Chevy/Malibu/-/-/1999?ATony
If you are low on fuel and come to a stop, the fuel sloshes around inside the tank and the float is unable to get a good reading. If this happens with a full tank, there might be an electrical issue causing the problem.
@i13w13d You may want to check the filler neck hose to see if it's kinked at all, or if there's a possible venting issue in one of the lines that's preventing the tank from becoming full.
@1aauto Thanks, I figured out what it was. It was a weak fuel pump and also a bad Mass airflow sensor. It starts like a charm now and has alot more power. I did it myself and watched your other video on mass airflow sensor replacement :)
@jayR1805 You could try something a little stronger like Kroil or PB Blaster. Maybe even a long extension with a bar on the ratchet for some added leverage. Just be careful not to break the bolt (if you can help it).
My new pump came with two seals, one was an O ring like the previous pump had, only much larger in diameter. The other was squared in cross section but also a much larger diameter matching the size of the first seal. When installed the O-ring will not stay between the pump housing and the tank but oozes out failing to seal for very long. I have now had to reinstall it three times and have given up. I have instead ordered a new O-ring on Ebay of a much smaller diameter (98mm ID instead of the 104-105mm ID of the O-ring provided), it will be here in a week and will hopefully do the job. meanwhile the tank is out and the car not usable. The pump itself works great and the video very well produced. Please review the seals that this pump comes with and get them replaced as needed, plus add a good video showing the seals on the new pump.
+Ray Sykes Thank you for the update. If possible, we would like to speak with you about this discrepancy, and if you could email us a photo of the o-rings you are in reference to our email address is service@1aauto.com. 1aauto.com
It would be the price of the part then the hourly rate of the shop. It's typically a good 2-3 hour job. We carry new fuel pumps for many vehicles with free shipping, on our website 1aauto.com. 888-844-3393
That's going to be an issue with the sending unit. You will have to drop the tank down and either replace just that unit or the entire fuel pump and sending unit together.
Thanks for sharing the video on changing the fuel pump on Chevy Malibu 97-03very helpful is there anyway you can make a video on how to easily change and flush the transmission fluid on the same vehicle Chevy Malibu 1999 to 03
Great job! Did you perform a pressure check? What is pressure supposed to be on these engines? I have a '98 Cutlass with 3.1L and mine is only at 35 psi which sounds low to me. I figure it should be at least 40-45 but I've not been able to find specs anywhere.
Great Video. Do you have one on replacing the pump not the whole basket? Just replaced mine on a 2002 sunfire and now it kinda stutters at high way speeds.
+SolarShedParts.com Thanks for watching. We carry the fuel pump shown in this video with free shipping. Here's a link to them if anyone needs to replace theirs. www.1aauto.com/electric-fuel-pump-and-sending-unit-module-ac-delco-mu1374/i/acfpu00006?TH-cam&Forum&ATony
+Patrick Joseph You could. Just protect yourself from fuel spray by putting a rag over the valve while releasing the pressure. This is why pulling the relay is so nice: it just slowly runs the car out of fuel, empyting the lines and doesn't spray vapors into the air.
do you HAVE to replace the sending unit along with the pump or can you just replace the pump? what are some signs that you should replace the sending unit also? just wondering because of the 100 dollar price difference
Great Video. I noticed your tank "fell" out with ease. Mine feels stuck on a 2003. Based on your video it appears that there is nothing that should be holding it up. I do have a question, why remove the fuel pump relay?
Thanks for the great videos mike. My car cranks, but won't start. Checked fuses and all appeared to be fine. Battery is good, and even heard a buzz at the back of the car when I put the key in the on position. I thought that meant the fuel pump was okay? Well, I finally had it towed to a shop and they said..no pressure..and I needed to have the fuel pump and filter replaced...for about $850 dollars? Huh??? That's not going to happen! Is this job much different on a Pontiac Montana?
great video just watched it and followed it step by step to replace my fuel pump on a 2001 chevy malibu. but now im having a problem. whenever the car stops at a stop light or stop sign the fuel gauge goes all the way down to empty and the gas light comes on but then once you start driving again the fuel gauge goes back up. whats this due to???
1A your videos help a lot, thank you for posting them. I have a 2002 impala, will it be just as simple to replace using the access hatch behind the back seat in the trunk. Thanks for responding
If your Impala has one, it should make the job a lot easier. We carry new fuel pumps on our website, with FREE SHIPPING in the lower 48 states. Here's a link to them for your 2002 Chevy Impala. Hope this helps you out. www.1aauto.com/1A/fuel-pump/Chevy/Impala/-/-/2002?VideoReply&TH-cam&ATony
thanks for this video one more time. I replaced the pump and everything went fine. Now yesterday I filled the tank up and fuel spilled out the front side ( side opposite of the filler neck ) dose any one know what the white thing is on top of the tank with the black house coming out and going over the side. if you go to 8:14 in the video, you can see it to the right of the fuel pump outlet. thanks for you help.
@MrYoungGrego Currently we do not have an auto repair video for this particular repair on an 04 Chevy Malibu. We'll keep this repair in mind when doing future videos.

Yes, I figured this year Malibu wouldn't be much different from the 2002 Grand Am i was fixing. Exact set up.
This was a great video! Everything worked perfect.
Mike, thank you so much for the video. I followed it step by step and was able to successfully get the job done. Great job.

i would suggest to use a brass chisel or punch when unlocking the fuel pump ring. steel on steel could cause a spark. BOOM!
LOL you can't be serious
As usual I appreciate the videos. I just did some Mobil mechanic work for a guy stranded at work. While I was under there I changed the fuel filter as well since that thing was from the factory with 200k miles on it
You may want to test the fuel pressure, to see if the fuel pressure regulator is working properly.
@Ducktastic777 You're welcome. Thank you for visiting our TH-cam channel.
@jw621557 It may take you around an hour or so to remove the gas tank.
The basket shown in the video has the pump inside of it. The process would be the same. You may want to try to change the fuel filter to see if it helps to clear the issue up.
@mts0628 It'll stay in place on it's own. You could also zip tie it if it's getting in the way.
I referenced this thing on so many moves. You were insanely helpful with the fuel line clips and connectors.

@Ducktastic777 If the car will not because of a bad fuel pump, the you shouldn't have to depressurize the system.
You may hear it a little but it shouldn't be super loud while your driving.
You may want to make sure that the lock ring is fine and not warped or anything that could be causing this. It should lock firmly into place for you.
Thanks for making au h a great video. It saves me over $500 doing the unit myself.
@1aauto thanx ever so much. This repair was a breeze! Now just wish I coulda fixed my Bonneville when she broke down. I might still have her. Many many thanx. :)
There aren't a very many cars with this luxury..lol Usually it requires that you drop the gas tank to service it.
If you have a Chiltons or a Haynes manual they should show you the wiring scheme.
Thank you a lot for the video, you saved me $600. I had my fuel pump go out unfortunately and had it towed to a shop that I never did business with, and they quoted me $700 for this job, and I was surprised how quick this took to fix.......20 minutes top with another person to help (would have been less if we didn't have to re-thread a bolt.)

@TheSleepmanscott It sounds like it's the sending unit in the gas tank. You could try to replace it and see if that solves the problem.
You may want to make sure that you have the correct fuel pump. Different years may have had different connectors.
@GodLovinConservative It may be. The basics should be the same, but there could be a few different things that you need to do. Hope this help you out. Have a great day!
You could test it with an ohm meter to see if it has the right voltage to it.
I struggled with those quick disconnects at first. Just to reiterate, after you open the flap, you push the disconnect clips up so as if they are coming off the line; they won't actually come off, but then you can pull off the tubing.
It may be some type of vent cap. The dealer may be able to get one for you.
@boneerooo You should be able to make this repair exactly as we show in the video.
The grand am and the Malibu share the same pump for certain years so it should be the same depending upon what year it is.
It wouldn't hurt to replace it, but if it's working ok it should be fine. Hope this helps you out.
We currently do not have an auto repair video on that particular year. You may be able to apply some of the basics to it.
@TeNaCiOuSLeGeNd It might be, you could always try a new fuel filter in it first if you haven't changed it in a while to see if it helps.
This is the 5th time i've watched this video and now its time to give it a whirl. Wish me luck. :)
Thanks this video saved me and my fiancé a couple hundred dollars.
Some vehicles are like that but most require the tank to be dropped. There are some people out there that have cut a hole in there trunk to access the pump but that is very dangerous and we do not condone that.
@Ducktastic777 If the connectors are corroded and brittle. I would replace them with good ones, along with any corroded or bad wiring.
On the 99-03 Chevy Malibu the fuel pump and the sending unit are all one unit.

Here's a link to the replacement fuel pumps on out website. 1aauto.com/1A/FuelSendingUnits/Chevy/Malibu/-/-/1999?ATony
If you do not hear the pump kick on with the key, it could be a fuel pump that needs to be replaced.
@Salamero500 Thank you for visiting our auto repair channel on TH-cam.
If you are low on fuel and come to a stop, the fuel sloshes around inside the tank and the float is unable to get a good reading. If this happens with a full tank, there might be an electrical issue causing the problem.
After watching this I’ve decided to let someone else do it. Thank you for the informational video
+spooky luke Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
@Ducktastic777 You may want to check your connection to it and also any grounds.
@TheSleepmanscott It should be the sending unit that's causing this.
@i13w13d You may want to check the filler neck hose to see if it's kinked at all, or if there's a possible venting issue in one of the lines that's preventing the tank from becoming full.
@Ducktastic777 If you have a bad connection, it could cause issues.
@scorpion831 If the gauge itself works fine but rattles, then you might need to replace the gauge.
@ushook If it slowly turns over but doesn't catch, you may want to check the battery.
@sandylo73 You may want to check all of your grounds and connections, to see if anything has come loose.
@LilHash1216 It depends where they are leaking. You may be able to fix it with a couple of pieces of gas line and some worm clamps.
@1aauto Thanks, I figured out what it was. It was a weak fuel pump and also a bad Mass airflow sensor. It starts like a charm now and has alot more power. I did it myself and watched your other video on mass airflow sensor replacement :)
@jayR1805 You could try something a little stronger like Kroil or PB Blaster. Maybe even a long extension with a bar on the ratchet for some added leverage. Just be careful not to break the bolt (if you can help it).
I would love to see a fuel pump replacement for a Chevy venture 2004
My new pump came with two seals, one was an O ring like the previous pump had, only much larger in diameter. The other was squared in cross section but also a much larger diameter matching the size of the first seal. When installed the O-ring will not stay between the pump housing and the tank but oozes out failing to seal for very long. I have now had to reinstall it three times and have given up. I have instead ordered a new O-ring on Ebay of a much smaller diameter (98mm ID instead of the 104-105mm ID of the O-ring provided), it will be here in a week and will hopefully do the job. meanwhile the tank is out and the car not usable.

It may be some type of a vent cap.
The fuel pump may shut off after it heats up. Could be a heat issue.

Mike, can you just release pressure on the Schraeder valve located near the P/S pump before beginning? Thanks!! Good time to replace the filter also.
+Patrick Joseph You could. Just protect yourself from fuel spray by putting a rag over the valve while releasing the pressure. This is why pulling the relay is so nice: it just slowly runs the car out of fuel, empyting the lines and doesn't spray vapors into the air.
will this also apply to an 04 Grand Am
do you HAVE to replace the sending unit along with the pump or can you just replace the pump? what are some signs that you should replace the sending unit also? just wondering because of the 100 dollar price difference
There's adhesive two sided foam tape holding the tank up. So after everything has been removed you'll have to give it a little yank.
Great Video. I noticed your tank "fell" out with ease. Mine feels stuck on a 2003. Based on your video it appears that there is nothing that should be holding it up. I do have a question, why remove the fuel pump relay?
It greatly reduces the amount of fuel that spews out when you disconnect the lines.
You should do one for an 03 Crown Vic Interceptor.
Thanks for the great videos mike. My car cranks, but won't start. Checked fuses and all appeared to be fine. Battery is good, and even heard a buzz at the back of the car when I put the key in the on position. I thought that meant the fuel pump was okay?

@MrYoungGrego Currently we do not have an auto repair video for this particular repair on an 04 Chevy Malibu. We'll keep this repair in mind when doing future videos.
i thought there were access holes in the boot that u can use instead of pulling the whole tank off?
Never use scotch locks on your fuel pump wiring! Waterproof butt connectors, or properly soldered only.
