Hello, I just want to thank you for posting this video. It really helped me figure out how to fix my fuel pump. And again thanks a million friend.
Thanks bro.
You saved me over $400
Haha man this is excellent. When mine goes out in my 02 I’m using this video. Good work bro.
This is a terrible method.
Two bolts removes the tank.
6 bed bolts with locktight and remove the tail lights is your “easy alternative”
Go fuck yourself if you’re this fucking dumb
Didn't know to remove the bed, im getting ready to change mine now. So thanks for the info bro, keepem coming.
I hope you realized how retarded this is. 😩🙏🙏🙏
Great video! Good tips and very clear!
Really helpful. Great video
Thanks for the repair vid Alexander it's going to help me out a bunch!!🙏😊
Nah this was pretty garbage tbh 😩😩😩😩😩
This video helps me alot thanks mate!
Thanks for watching I always film my repairs on my truck so that way if anybody needs help I'm there for them I certainly could use more subscribers my truck is getting older and repairs seem to be coming faster and faster.
Awesome. Thank you for thre video
Hell yeah I’m gonna use this video!!!
Man, ....awful nice to have that log grabber on the job huh? Thanks for posting.
Go big or go home💪😆. Whatever gets the job done, I have to do mine real soon. On the kick the crap outta fuel tank and she fires lol.... for now
If I feel ambitious enough to give this a shot I will be watching this again....not right now though with my torn rotator cuff. I started my a couple times a year for the past 5 years and no problems until now. Definitely the pump or whatever drives it. Don't have a grappler to lift my bed off though...good idea for sure. I've watched the way you drop the tank and it looks to be a total pain the ass either way, but at least I only have a couple gallons or less in mine. Good video.
Thank you friend it will save a bunch of money compared to having a mechanic do the work
Great video! It really helped us alot, we just changed ours using this video as a guide. Thank you!
@@alexdobo3270 hey bud my truck is doing the same thing stalling out but u can hear the fuel pump kicking on when u turn the key . Could u hear yours kick on still too ?? Mines a 2007 dodge ram
I'm probably gonna end up doing mine a different way but thanks for the video, really helped
Yeah this method was quite retarded.
Hurr durrer I don’t want to undo the two bolts on the fucking clamps so I’ll just do the 6 bed bolts and 4 tail light bolts, fuck with some already ran electrical lines and just do a nice hum up job.
What a piece of work. And you bothered to film this bullshit???
Please by god just drop the fuel tank 👌
Gracias 🙏 amigo si me sirvio tu video
Thanks got a 96, getting ready to do.
BIG TIME thanks
The bolts on the back of the truck, can you get them off with a socket wrench, or is an impact required?
Do you have to release the fuel pressure? I've seen in other videos they do that.
Liked and subscribed thanks!
Love the claw hammer, real mechanic LMAO!
I have a 2000 Dodge ram 1500 gas strap broke so I put a ratchet strap on itnow my vehicle act like it's not getting any gas do you think the ratchet strap knocked something loose or tight on a line
I just dropped the tank on mine when it went on me. Bolts were too rusted to lift bed but was easy to drop it.
@ Alexander Dobosiewicz Great Video!! I just took the 2 bolts out on the tank straps on my 2003 hemi ram. Far easier than taking the bed off but then again your tank was full. Mine was able to be run empty because fuel pump sometimes worked an other times didn't. I got mine to work temporarily by hitting the bottom of the tank in the center with my hand so that was super easy on my part I'm glad I didn't have to take my bed off.
I'm about to do my fuel pump change, this helps alot because before I saw this video, someone had told me about this procedure versus dropping the gas tank.
And do I have to release the pressure from the front or only if I'm going the other direction (dropping tank)
But did you remove the bed to do it???
@@brianflowers1498 hey, I actually saw another video that was easier than lifting the whole bed.
The other video showed how to just lift the bed from one side and prop it up with a board or something and it actually worked, I had room.
Of course you have to do the same as this video tho, take lights out, unbolt, etc.
Took me a few hours, not too bad.
what brand pump did you purchase
How long start to finsh??
Changing the fuel pump on my 02' Dodge Ram was one of the easiest repairs I've done.
Did you remove the bed or lower the tank?
@@jeremywilson8334 I removed the bolts except the rear bolts but only loosened those then raised up the bed and placed blocks to hold it up. Free range to the fuel pump. No need to drain or drop the tank.
I have the same truck woldnt have thought of lifting the bed
I’m aware it’s been a while but have gig replaced with aftermarket or OEM pump? I’m debating whether it’s worth the $250 for OEM. If you have an aftermarket has it lasted or would you have preferred OEM? Thank you.
ALWAYS use OEN or better. ALWAYS
Step one. Grab your excavator that you definitely have. XD jk great video man, I just dropped the tank instead of raising the bed and it was an ab workout for sure lol
How long did it take? Did you do it alone
use a floor jack with a short 2x4 next time
What about the fuel filter?
Dude. I deadass need to do my fuel pump but I can’t seem to get off my bolts that hold my bed to my chassis so I’m struggling with that right now. Not to mention it’s 4 degrees and snowing where I’m at
Wow. Same. Mine just went out and 9°
Why they never add a little hatch for the fuel pump change before start the car production. I like your video it is much easier way to do the pump change if you dont have workshop to raise vehicle. Do you think 4 men can lift the bed up? I don't have crane(( Thanks for uploading!
Yes 4 men can lift the bed. We used 3 people to lift the bed on mine. Just walk it back about a foot-two feet and rest it on the steel frame
@@traviseddy6733 Thank you, much appreciated!
Hell yeah man! On the next 90° Sunny Florida day I'll get my big ole bull dozer out and strap my bed to it and lift it off...much easier...I just need a bulldozer and a sunny day
How does the pump come out of the tank... you didn't show it coming out or the new one going in. That's where I am stuck. It won't pull straight up and the manual doesn't show show those details
Similar to how a penus goes into a butt just line it up and shove er on in bud.
in the video that you showed what it was doing, starting then dies. after it did that and you cranked again did it start. basically first try starts and dies second try starts and runs ?
No it always dies until I changed the fuel pump. However if your tank is not maintaining pressure via a vacuum leak it can cuase stalling while driving I know from experience also if it starts and stalls fuel pump could be going out try rapid accelloration if it cuts out could be either of the two
appreciate the reply
Good video but NEVER use a vacuum on gasoline. Fumes and electrical motors don't mix
Or set the vacuum to blow
@@BriBeast8566 As long as there is enough air space for the fumes to dissipate before the fuel air mixture(if high enough) meet a spark in the vacume motor then there's no problem...
What if you don't have a crane😂😂😂 great video I used blocks of wood works great🙌🙌🙌🎅🎅🎅
So my truck acts like it wants to start but can't. I was driving fine then it sputtered out and hasn't started since. Is it the fuel pump?
Have you checked the blinker fluid?
This just happened today. Truck didn't want to start in the morning. Checked fuel pump relay and fuse both were good. Couldn't figure it out. Then saw a vid from EricTheCarGuy he mentioned try hitting the bottom of the tank and then try to crank it. Shoooootttt!!!!! It started right up. Was able to make it home and do the repair. It boggled, sputtered at times and turned off on me but, hit the tank again with my hand and it started right up. Thank God. Try it if you haven't gotten it repaired by now.
Using vacuum i think better and cleaner more efficient in cleaning dirt!!!
My truck is doing the exact same thing as yours did, I replaced the fuel pump and it did not fix it, any advice???? I appreciate any information you can give!!! I have the 03 model with the 4.7 5 speed
Check the codes that's the first place I would start its free at most autoparts stores or you can pick one up for less than 50 they are really handy to have because everybody ends up getting a check engine light at some point.
@@alexdobo3270 I replaced the crank sensor and it started but it’s still hard to start and dies sometimes I think I’m going to run seafoam through the intake and see what that does!!!
@@fosso_headhunter2246 Likely a pcm/ecu issue.
My 03 dodge 1500 pump went out I just cut a hole in the bed and from start to finish 20 min
Only 6 bolts and 3 screws to lift the bed. Why destroy the bed due to laziness
@@kcook8119 he could always fab a compartment door there for the next pump replacement.
U made that shit look hard 🤣🤣
Where did you buy the fuel pump from?
Advance Auto it was around $150 I believe
Alexander Dobosiewicz is there any sensors I have to connect once I change it . It looks like you just put it in there and sealed it back
all done but won't start why?
Your tires are nearly bald!
Because everyone has a crane to lift the bed..lol....
I think I'll just cut a hole in the bed then screw a cover over it when done.
Oooooooooh ya thats my plan
Sounds much easyer. So that's what I'm ganna do.
Sounds much easier. That's what I'm ganna do. Don't forget to put some kind of sealer on the bed so no water draines on the tank every time it rains.
Did that with mine, worked just fine. I'm leery of throwing sparks, so instead of using a grinder, I used my air hammer with cutting attachment. Cut through the bed like butter and took 3 minutes.
Hahahahaha just drop the tank!
I did mines like 5 minutes ago and I dropped the gas tank wasn't hard actually it was like taking candy from a baby
Your truck is old, I bought my truck in 2000. Ordered it from the factory so it's a 2001 model. The fuel pump went out on it last fall and now I'm going to replace it.
Ok so your truck is older than his, nice work champ.
I just put a fuel pump in a Dodge truck took me 30 minutes and I didn't take the bed off I drop the tank down put the new one in put the tank right back up why you people do it like this I'll never know
Taking the bed off is easy to do.
depends on your setup. i have a fifth wheel hitch so dropping the tank probably would be easier for me
@timmy pruss. Lets be honest even to an experienced mechanic would take about 3 hours to do it. So 30 mins you are exaggerating
Like everyone has a loader to remove the box. There's another video of a lady doing it by herself after removing the bolts on one side of the bed and loosining them on the other side and then jacking up one side. Easy Peasey
Really!? Easier than dropping the fuel tank you say.
Way easier. Trust me. A few people can pick up the bed. I've done so many times. Specially if the tank is full
This not helping its to many different seens
