Fuel pump removal
#3
Did my fuel pump on my '02 earlier this year.
If tank is not near empty, disconnect fuel line at filter, then use the fuel pump to empty tank. There is a terminal in the fuse block that you can put a fused +12 Vdc to and run the pump to fill a fuel container.
The filler hose will be stuck to the inlet. Replacement hose is available, not cheap and not exactly the same. Spend time and spray WD40 or similar around the hose end and try, try, try, try to get the hose to come off before giving-in and cutting it. Fillerhose.com or something like that....do a Google search.
Lastly there is a vent hose in the front, top side of the tank....a bit difficult to get hose off with tank inplace. I cut this one and just replaced it. Just get a length at local auto parts store.
And I should have stated this first....only use a Delco fuel pump...no aftermarket, noisy, short life one....only Delco.
Good luck.
