@LsxMovie Im replacing a fuel pump in my firebird, I got an exact match as myn, the new one comes with all the assembly intact so I can just swap them out, but after cuting the trapdoor, I noticed the electircal thing at 7:42 u mention you dont need to take it off, is it possible to just lift that up and attach it to the new?
man i need a fuel pump for a 98 pontiac trans am 5.7. they r waaay to expensive at autozone, does any1 have one forsale? or does any1 have warranty on it, we can talk about money.
Me & my dude followed these steps.It turned out gr8,just keep in mind disabling pump.V6- and V8 pumps are differ.But a big thx u for this video only took like a 1 hr to do.
Yes! I just cut out the piece in my 99 z28 and thank god for this way! it would of been almost impossible to drop the tank or take it to a shop! thank you so much!
a heads up to people out there! my 2002 firebird had the fuel pump near the bottom not the top as pictured here. its alot closer to the bottom curved area.
@ShortMag270 alot of people do this. its alot easier. cars not destoyed. its an improvement over the factory being that you can get to the fuel pump. its not lazy...its working smarter and not harder. more power to you if you wanna go through all that. you have a point to a degree....but this method is not folly.
@ShortMag270 If you want to drop the axle, exhaust, and x-member, have at it. There's a reason why many manufacturers have access doors to the fuel pumps, it makes life easy.
I have a helpful tip…. Put a tie strap around the plastic clip that holds the fuel line together … and tie it tight… make sure it is tied on the outside edge (only around the clip) … this will help free up your hands so you can pull the fuel line apart… no screwdrivers needed…. Thanks for the great video this saved me so much time….
guessing this is the same thing with my camaro? and i have a parts car that has bad gas if i take the pump and everything out of the parts car should and is there a way to empty out the old gas from the pump?
is there a way to test the fuel pump once you take it out of the gas tank to make sure the fuel pump is the problem. my camaro wont start. put a new fuel filter on it but the gas is not making it up to the engine or the fuel filter. must be the pump rite?
@veeohtee04 There is a prime connector on passenger side fender area. It runs directly to the pump itself and if you jump it with a 12v source the pump should kick on until you remove the voltage. If you use the prime connector and the pump still does nothing than that is a pretty good sign that it is bad. google "4th gen F body technical aids" and you should find the SHbox.com site which has a lot of helpful info on it.

You did not reinstall the fuel bucket. Wouln't that cause problems keeping the pump sumberged in fuel at all times or is it not an issue?

This is stupid, you destroyed the car because you are too lazy to drop the fuel tank?

@philyt
You don't need to pull the rear axle, and on a 3.8 you don't even have to get the exhaust out of the car, just unhang it and push it to the side.

I own a 86. Would the Fuel tank still be in the same spot? and wouldn't it twist the car?
