You don't have to remove the gas tank , take out 4 bolts in the bed and slide it back about two feet and you can get to it from the top . Easy job than can be done in less than an hour .
Was it the 4-pin (3L2Z-9H307-EC) or 7-pin (2L2Z-9H307-Hx) connector fuel pump? I ask because the 4-pin 2L2Z was discontinued and updated to the 3L2Z 7-pin giving us “does not fit” when searching online through our VINs showing conflicting OEM part numbers for our 2002 MYs. There are a few sites still selling the 4-pins; just wanted to get your thoughts-
Fast trick to change a fuel pump sports Trac without taking the tank down and draining just take the bed off 4 bolts and filler lines off the tank Twice's easy
I do remember that the gas pump was cracked on top. There was a little puddle of gas of top of the gas pump unit. But we couldn’t see it at all until we pulled down the gas tank and found out that the gas pump unit was cracked and leaking
looking at buying a pump for my 2001 sport trac. Does it need the pump with the 1 tube ports or 2? I saw yours has 2 but it gives me different options to buy online.
1whitetyler if im not mistaking i think your sport trac has the 1 port. I think in 2002 year model they changed it to 2 ports but it should be the same process to remove and install. I think the best way to figure out if its a 1 port or 2 port is to ask your local auto parts store and ask if your fuel pump is with 1 port or 2 port and then buy it online since its usually cheaper online.
@@misterw01f23 I was searching on which fuel pump I should get as I have a 2002 explorer sport trac, I've been seeing options for 7-pin, 8-pin, and even 4-pin connectors and I'm really not sure as to which one I need...
My timing chain tensioner on the passenger side had extended all the way out killing the my 02 sport trac, have replaced the tensioner as well as alternator,crankshaft sensor, coil pack, plugs and wires and last but not least downstream 02 sensor, it will crank but not start, any advice?
Well typically a fuel pump should last you for a while. However, purchasing aftermarket fuel pumps is a gamble sometimes because they could turn out to be faulty since the materials are not the same. But if you have no issues with it then i wouldnt bother to replace it. You should tell your mechanic the reason why it needs to be replaced, because if your vehicle isnt having any issues such as misfire or your vehicle shutting off spontaneously and is running fine how it is then i wouldn’t see a reason to replace it
juancho_DR sorry about that, but not too tight cuz then you might run the risk of breaking the ring. But i would say as it starts to get tight n it doesnt move as easily, i would probably give it a little snug and thats it
Pienso que es el mismo proceso pero alguien sugirió aflojar la caja y hacer el remplazo por arriba, suena más fácil. Es lo que quiero hacer con la mía y es 05 también
Ok thank you for your quick reply David. Great video! My dads explorer has the exact same gas leak so I'm about attempt this. Any other tips or suggestions you can give me?
Alcantar6 well its pretty straight forward just how i demonstrated in my video. Idk if i mentioned it on my video but i would do this job when the gas tank is almost empty, it would make ur life easier
Hola david. Buen video. 👍 Yo tengo. Una explorer 2002. Y tiene likeo. From the top of the tank. Is the same process like you do in your ford. Si son las lineas de manguera. Se pueden reemplasar. Oh. I have to replace the fuel pump.
Eric Ferguson I agree!!....i just finished replacing the timing chains, guides, cassettes, seals and gaskets on this same truck n its just dumb how the engine is designed. A pain on the ass haha
Your video helped us a lot replacing the pump on our 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac

Ja ja ja you soun realy , I daun the tank too
Nope not on this truck it has to be dropped.
Fuel pump is located under rear driver side passenger seat. If you remove bed you will not be able to get to it.
thank you saving me lots of time
Thanks for the video, guys. Doing mine this weekend
Chris P good luck bro. You should be fine doing it on yourself
Yo Da V got it done in a few hours. Only one I could find in stock around me was from AirTex. Thanks again for the video!

Big Frontline612 stopN thru Minnesota bound 💯
the only thing i would have done different is use a floor jack to hold the tank while removing the straps and then to hold it in place for installing.

Where was the gas leak coming from I’m having this same problem now
I do remember that the gas pump was cracked on top. There was a little puddle of gas of top of the gas pump unit. But we couldn’t see it at all until we pulled down the gas tank and found out that the gas pump unit was cracked and leaking
@@misterw01f23 okay thanks bro
where is the fuel regulator , everyone tell me is in the fuel tank but i dont see...
I put a trap door in my bed just for that
Pero no pusiste como se ponía ni como se quitaba la pompa hay paisas

Perfect! Even better then it means its the same process like my video. Good luck

Fuel pump
How long does fuel pump replacement last? I replaced my 02 explorer fuel pump in 2015 and my mechanic says it's bad again after 4 yrs.
Well typically a fuel pump should last you for a while. However, purchasing aftermarket fuel pumps is a gamble sometimes because they could turn out to be faulty since the materials are not the same.

disconnect negative battery terminal first.
Lol all these years I've been removing the clips. Learned something new.
Porque le cambio la pompa de gas y no quiere ensender
How tight do you need to have the fuel pump seal ring? Never explain in the video
juancho_DR sorry about that, but not too tight cuz then you might run the risk of breaking the ring. But i would say as it starts to get tight n it doesnt move as easily, i would probably give it a little snug and thats it
doing nmy sport rac now. im wondering what are the two clips that came with it. do anyone knows ?
Michelle Alvarado which two clips?
Chaleeee se ve muy facil pero no me animo solo
How can search the gas pump im trying to get a new gas pump for my sport track
Oscar Vazquez i bought mine online. I cant remember which brand it was but make sure it has 2 ports on the fuel pump and not 1
At 2:47 what is that line next to the fuel pump?
Street Mann if im not mistaking it’s probably the vaper line
What fuel pump did you guys use from what company?
Ricky Gomez i forgot the brand but i did buy it online
Where did you purchased your fuel pump?
THE SMASHING MACHINE i purchased it online but i forgot what brand. I should have mentioned it
Alguien sabe si es el mismo proceso en una 2005 ?

What was the cause of the gas leak?
Alcantar6 the cover of the gas pump had a crack making gas flow out. When we dropped the gas tank there was a puddle of gas on top of the fuel pump
Ok thank you for your quick reply David. Great video! My dads explorer has the exact same gas leak so I'm about attempt this. Any other tips or suggestions you can give me?
Alcantar6 well its pretty straight forward just how i demonstrated in my video. Idk if i mentioned it on my video but i would do this job when the gas tank is almost empty, it would make ur life easier
Yeah I emptied the gas tank before I removed it. The pump was cracked on top also. Thanks again for the video. Well done.
Hola david. Buen video. 👍
Yo tengo. Una explorer 2002. Y tiene likeo. From the top of the tank. Is the same process like you do in your ford. Si son las lineas de manguera. Se pueden reemplasar. Oh. I have to replace the fuel pump.
What was the reason for changing your fuel pump?
The truck suddenly turned off while driving and then it wouldn’t turn on again
why do these car companys make things like this so difficult, will never buy a ford again or a chevy. piece of garbage.
Eric Ferguson I agree!!....i just finished replacing the timing chains, guides, cassettes, seals and gaskets on this same truck n its just dumb how the engine is designed. A pain on the ass haha
Eric Ferguson ..what do you recommend? They put the fuel pump on the dashboard?
OptimusOne. ...you missed your calling ..you should have become an engineer or a comedian. Queerbait? Your avatar.

When I get mine running it's getting sold although I will feel sorry for whoever buys it.
