RedPath88 Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Theres nothing to it, pull the carpet up in the cargo area, remove the access panel, disconnect the fuel lines and electrical connectors (try not to get fuel on the connectors/wires) pull the pump and install the new one in reverse order. Before you pull the pump, start the engine then pull the fuel pump fuse and let the engine go till it dies, that will release the pressure from the fuel lines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unccpathfinder Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 im prob a lil late but getting the fuel lines loose can be a lil PITA...the lock ring was stubborn on mine as well...I would make sure all the dirt is cleaned from around it B4 removing the pump b/c then it will drop in your tank which wouldnt be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
